It's a 10.5 cm tall Hello Kitty made of a real diamond in her ribon and pink sapphires, white topaz, and platinum 900. She became 35 years old last year.<br /><br />http://www.afpbb.com/article/life-culture/life/2648417/4699058?blog=jugemkeiko amanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10009453048859594709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8359240399655245601.post-52608878376438647192010-01-13T18:09:15.608-08:002010-01-13T18:09:15.608-08:00Keiko, Woops, I read wrong.

Also the current creator is third person.<br /><br />You can see real Hello Kitty train, tour buses, and even a real jet. Some train stations and other places provide Hello Kitty lunch. You can imagine people do anything to have fun and make money! <br /><br />http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%keiko amanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10009453048859594709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8359240399655245601.post-70400120562714123392010-01-12T19:25:57.856-08:002010-01-12T19:25:57.856-08:00Keiko, Funny story about the creator and her husba...Keiko, Funny story about the creator and her husband. That’s often a husband’s story isn’t it? Live with it or have an unhappy wife or worse, in this case, maybe a divorce! Wow, certificates of Hello Kitty knowledge. I had no idea the craze was so huge. I didn’t know she was born in England. Very interesting.<br /><br />Thank you for the info. on “grab bag” and “lucky bag.” I like the idea of a Rebbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08117210892683574784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8359240399655245601.post-66977184039554666492010-01-11T14:15:55.281-08:002010-01-11T14:15:55.281-08:00Dorrain,

Always enjoy discovering something new about your culture every time I stop in. <br /><br />The material is lovely.

I realized that I was comparing Golden Delicious apples with Meiwa kumquats. Meiwa kumquats are very sweet and flavorful unlike other kinds of kumquat. <br /><br />About Hello Kitty, I used to go to a Hello Kitty store with my baby daughter.

What he says is perfect in describing how you show Japan being different from everywhere else. Your tenugui are beautiful and sound to be multifunctional.<br /><br />This post also makes me think of the seeming playfulness of your culture. When I was a little girl, I loved "Hello Kitty" and when I come across the products now, I Rebbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08117210892683574784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8359240399655245601.post-85702821064423896372010-01-09T16:06:43.891-08:002010-01-09T16:06:43.891-08:00Vincent,

Their classical designs that lasted until now are so innovative and unique although I cannot show many here. And many clever designs are playing with words. <br /><br />The other day I was at Museum of Contemporary Arts. I saw many good modern arts, but only one really spoke to me.

It seems to be an artistic essence and in your topic I see a continuity between the classical styles and motifs, and those of today.<br /><br />I ask myself also if it brings out the essence of Keiko (or what makes her different from, say, another Japanese woman of her Vincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18297306807695767580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8359240399655245601.post-30113167344112311082010-01-08T14:58:04.199-08:002010-01-08T14:58:04.199-08:00All the tenugui in the photos are used many times,...All the tenugui in the photos are used many times, so the most of them show faded colors as you see them.
