Craft Crawl : Toko Victory Bandung

This place is relatively new, it opens at the end of 2016. If you live in Bandung you may know the famous "Toko Petra" that mysteriously shutdown a while ago. I was actually really sad when I found out because it was on of my favorite craft shop despite the lack of service.

the entrance

Toko Victory is opened a few stores away from Toko Petra, right in front of Kantor Pos Alun-Alun Bandung, it's really easy to find, it's near Alun-Alun Bandung and Pasar Baru, and in front of Kantor Pos Alun-Alun.





This store is like a new and improved version of Toko Petra, and it doesn't only sell craft stuffs, but at the second floor they sell home decor stuffs and bags, accessories too. The place is clean, neat and the service is waaay better than any old craft shop.

Craft Crawl : TOKO MAJU

Craft crawl is a segment for craft places aka craft shops and markets that I visit and review. As you know, online shops maybe have everything, but nothing beats real shopping! All the places I'm gonna review is mainly in Indonesia. I hope you like this segment!

For the first is Toko Maju in Pasar Mayestik, South Jakarta. The shop is pretty easy to find, it's not in the main building, but outside. On the first floor, it has garments, ribbons, yarns, buttons (most famous for), tools, threads, feathers, beads, and everything you can think of basically. This place literally has everything. Toko Maju has been one of my favorite place to shop, and I highly recommend this place.
The second floor has lace! Lots of laces that you can imagine, like literally. Sorry I forgot to take a pic tho.






































One interesting fact about this place is almost every time whenever I come to this place there is tourists. This place is kinda magical tho. They arrange everything by color. The only downside of this place is it's really narrow, and you will bump to another person when it's crowded. The second floor has no windows or some sort and it's really stuffy and hot so make sure you choose quick. And if you are a first timer, you are going to be a bit confused by the system, a staff will follow your orders, but make sure to remember the staff face because they don't use uniforms or tags the last time I went there.
