How to Start Your Bento Making Collection WIthout Breaking the Bank

I LOVE the art of bento box making but don't always have the time or money to make bentos as cute as I'd like. This site is dedicated to helping you stretch your bento-making budget to buy more by knowing where to buy what bento supplies cheap, and where you can buy bento online with free shipping.

Obviously you'll have to splurge on some items, but I'll break it down so you can save more on other items - and hopefully be able to get your most wished for bento "splurge" items faster.

Bento Making Supplies and Tools

Adorable Animal Sandwich Cutter

Bears and Cats

This sandwich cutter is sold by FromJapanWithLove.com at a relatively low price. Haven't ordered from them, and not sure how much shipping runs, but they have some adorable bento supplies that I haven't seen elsewhere.

Sandwich Cutters

Cute Kid Sandwich and Crust Cutters

Sometimes you can use cookie cutters as sandwich cutters, but it depends on how large they are. The smaller the cookie cutter the less of the bread you'll be able to use. Cutters that were made to be sandwich cutters try to include as much of a standard piece of bread as possible to avoid waste.

Cute Bento Faces

Made with Nori (Seaweed) Face Punches

Nori is Edible Seaweed used for Sushi and Bento BoxesNori (or edible seaweed) face punches are a great way to make your bento lunches totally cute. Again .

I know seaweed isn't something that kids in the US traditionally eat, but disguised as letters or cute animals they might actually make it down! Worst case, the seaweed gets picked off and the rest of the bento lunch gets eaten.
Letter Puncher

Love Love Love this ABC Nori (seaweed) Punch 

Where to buy seaweed / nori for the cute nori face punches and letter punches?

If you can't find nori sheets at your supermarket you can puchase them through Amazon. You can buy $25 worth to get free Amazon shipping, or if you have Amazon Prime this package always ships free.
