Momiji Dolls!

Thursday, April 28th, 2011

Momijidockor är så söta! Momiji är små japanska meddelandedockor. Om man vänder en upp och ner finns det ett hemligt meddelande inuti. Dock får man skriva det själv. Perfekt att ge som present! Väldigt lika kokeshidockor!
Designen på dockorna är inspirerad av japansk street-fashion, japansk kultur, manga m.m.
Nedan har jag samlat ihop mina favoriter från LoveMomiji!

English: Momiji dolls are so adorable! Momiji are japanese little message dolls, if you turn one upside down, there is a little secret message inside. You have to write it yourself though! Perfect to give away as a gift! They look very similar to kokeshi dolls! The designs are inspired by Japanese street-fashion, Japanese culture, manga etc.
Below are my favorites from LoveMomiji!

Kokeshi by Maria Parrish

I received a letter (snail mail) today from a dear friend, Jessica (thanks for the surprise! :D), containing four supercute MOO cards with Kokeshi doll illustrations on them, made by Maria Parrish. Oh I love them! So incredibly cute! :D Thank you! :D

Geisha Bargain

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

I think they are supposed to look like geishas ;). Anyway, for a couple a months ago I saw these cute things (Kokeshi dolls) at Åhléns. Back then they cost 95 SEK (~$12.39) each – waaay overpriced. Today I found them for 25 SEK (~$3.26) each. Bargain! However, when I was going to remove the sticky pricetag on the pink one, as you can see, a bit color fell off from it. Damnit! Poor quality! Thank god they were so cheap! :P

You can find these type of geishas almost at every interior design shop these days, but according to me, most of them are overpriced.

But the ones I bought can’t compete with for example this cool geisha from Tokidoki.
