Japanese traditional items for gift wrapping!

I added some new items to my shop today and these can be great for gift wrapping ideas.
Kimono Washi Tag
These tags made of Japanese washi paper are originally used for kimono (Japanese traditional costume). But now cute stripes and polka dots patterns are printed on them and they are perfect for gift tags or bookmarks. Available in Black and Gold.
And these Noshi Obi Paper Ribbons would be a simple and eco idea for gift wrapping. "Noshi" is a kind of ceremonial paper fold attached to gifts to express "good wishes" in Japan and is widely used for formal gifts. And this item is an unique adaption of Noshi - noshi printed on obi (paper bandle) that are used for bundling notes.

Please check these new items here!
