Mompe Shop
9月122009
Japanese time: by maikoI designed this site called "Mompe Shop".
A friend of mine is running this shop.
"Mompe" is the name of trousers which Japanese people wear since old days and its merit is "easy to move on it".
Lots of farmers are still feeling good to work on it. You can order it at this site from outside Japan.
Please try it! mompeya
Good Design RADIO

Japanese time: by maiko
A radio which has been for about 30 years in the old house where Maiko spent her early days.
A half broken radio which has been there to be noticed by no one recently.
Marked by the names, "National", Panasonic", and "Matsushita Denko".
With a calender and for AM only.
Its sound tells me its oldness. It now sounds "ZZZZZ…" that is good and smooth for my ears.

Cherry blossoms fall

Japanese time: by maiko
Cherry blossoms bloom and fall in very short time.
I feel the image in my heart looks like my love story.
It's similar to my heart at the time when I have to say bye after I spend a while with my sweetheart.
I always feel time flies when I'm with him. I'm really pleased when cherry blossoms bloom. But, I really feel sorrow when they fall.
When I meet my sweetheart, my heart is filled. But, the time to say bye is too sorrow.
How long do I think about this feeling?
How many years do I spend like this?
Do you have anyone who you like to meet now?

Let me show you Japanese traditional wrapping for congratulatory money gift.
It’s very good and cute.
You can find this sort of wrapping in every home in Japan.

I rearranged traditional one to wrap a palm-size box.
