Where can i get sanrio, kawaii, japanese/korean stationary in Maryland or DC?

Question

My local Sanrio closed down PLEASE help me. Where do I go for all my kawaii needs? I really don't want to shop online, please tell me anything you know in Maryland, DC, and Virginia. Surely there is a hidden gem somewhere I can go to!

Answer 1

I am sure you can get it at Ginza, near Dupont Circle in DC.  They have *everything* Japanese there.  If you haven't been there, it is really a remarkable store.

Ginza, Inc.

721 Connecticut Ave. NW

Washington, D.C. 20009

I hope this is helpful.

Answer 2

I don't know if the Sanrio store you are talking about is the one I know, but when I was like 6, there was a Sanrio store in Rockville, Maryland.

Answer 3

Additionally, the Smithsonian's Freer & Sackler Galleries lower-level gift shop carries some kawaii notecards, stationary and stickers.

There was a Sanrio outlet at Potomac Mills ... but haven't been there in quite a while; don't know if it still exists. I'd get my Badtz Maru items there. *grin*
