Here's what you'll get for ¥1,000:
Tempera paints - 14 colours
Plastic palette

Paint brush/water stand

SOLD - Thai Floor Cushions - ¥1,500 each or ¥2,000 for both

Fantastic Thai floor cushions. We bought these several years ago in Thailand and brought them back to Japan. They are great for relaxing on the floor. They are also great for kids. Our son loves to climb on them or just lie down and relax. Unfortunately they do not suit our new home. We love these cushions but it is time to say goodbye :(

Both cushions have a tall "triangle" portion with 2 bottom cushions attached that can be extended or folded under the triangle. The red/white cushion has a small tear in the seam (see photo), but it could be easily stitched up. Both are a well worn and have lost some of their stuffing. But they are wonderfully comfortable and perfect for tatami rooms or living rooms with floor seating.

¥1,500 each or ¥2,000 for both.

Pick up in Kichijoji. Bring a car as they are quite large and I don't have a big enough bag to pack them up.

Welcome Back!

As you can see by the long list below of items posted earlier today, I've been a busy bee. Yesterday, my husband and I made some major progress cleaning out our bedroom closet, a.k.a. the Black Hole, and found things that had been carefully packed when we moved 2 years ago but hadn't seen the light of day since.

We can now safely say that we will never use those light fixtures, wedding planning books, and decorative items again, no matter how beautiful or sentimental or useful they once were to us. So onto the blog and out of the house they go.

Please take a browse and contact me by posting a comment to the item you like or by email (keikosan30(at)gmail(dot)com) if you find something that interests you. There is still much more coming, including:

sarongs
kid's toys & clothes
Decorative glass clock
Aroma Nightlight
Incense
Small decorative Korean bags
Leather wallet
various small/decorative items (great stocking stuffers!)

Happy shopping!

SOLD - Muji Plastic Storage Boxes - ¥500/each

These boxes are the perfect solution to storing things in those deep Japanese futon closets. They are great for storing clothes, CDs, books, sports equipment, electronics, off-season gear and anything else you want to get out of your sight. I just happen to have way too many of them. Now that I have sold of most of their contents, I am selling the boxes as well. Here's what I have:

2 Small boxes: L64cm x W40cm x H23cm
4 Large boxes: L64cm x W40cm x H17cm

You can get them individually for ¥500 each. Or I will sell all 6 of them for ¥2,000 (a further ¥1,000 discount). They are a little old and worn, but they are still in perfect working order and are meant to be hidden in a closet anyway. Brand new they will cost you ¥1,200 ~ ¥1,500 per box.

Pick up in Kichijoji.

If you just buy one you should be able to manage yourself. If you buy them all then please bring a car or a few friends to help you.
