It's Japanese for handmade fabric household items. Usually has some embroidery or patchwork. Think toaster cover, apron, potholders , fabric boxes. I love Zakka style.

Especially if it is on Pinterest....anything to get 5 minutes of fame!

I looked at Zakka on Pinterest and it just looks, to me, like fancy clutter.
