Living with Sunshine [Kurashiki Temari]

The original "Kurashiki Temari" from Sunny Living is
A combination of three auspicious patterns handed down since ancient times.

We suggest this as a wonderful gift for any occasion.


[Pattern: bell]

  

 

The "bell pattern" is one of Japan's traditional motifs, a warm design that combines the lovely round shape of a bell with the gentle wishes that are contained within it. Along with its gentle sound, it is an auspicious motif that carries the meaning of happiness and warding off evil.

1. Symbol of protection and protection from evil

Bells have been considered tools that emit sacred sounds since ancient times. The sound of bells used at shrines is thought to have the power to ward off evil spirits and bring in pure energy . For this reason, the bell motif is imbued with the meaning of "warding off evil" and "warding off misfortune."

2. Gentle sounds = a sign of happiness

The soft sound of a bell has been thought to be a sound that brings happiness , as a "sound that brings good fortune" and a "sound that soothes people's hearts." For this reason, the bell pattern is also a motif that expresses wishes such as "May good things come to you" and "May happiness quietly resonate."

3. Patterns wishing for children's healthy growth

Bell patterns are used on kimonos for shrine visits and newborn clothes, and bell-shaped embroidery and patterns are often used on babies and children's clothing and accessories, as they are meant to ward off evil and pray for healthy growth .



Bells have been used at shrines since ancient times, and their sound is said to have the power to purify and exorcise, and to calm the mind and purify the space.

In addition, the image of a rolling bell is imbued with the meaning of "May things go smoothly" and "May each day pass brightly and lightly," and it has often been used on amulets and baby clothes as an auspicious motif for "bringing good fortune" and "bringing luck."


<Recommended celebratory occasions>
It is especially perfect as a gift to celebrate your child's milestones, such as a birth, Shichigosan, or first Doll Festival.
In addition to being used as a talisman and amulet, the sound of bells, which signals events, is also popular as a motif for blessing and protection on anniversaries and other special occasions.
Many people find the sound of bells soothing, so they are also chosen as gifts to convey the wish "May the recipient live a peaceful life."

Japanese color "coral color"


-- A soft crimson that embodies the prayers of the sea --


 

Coral color is a traditional Japanese color based on red coral , a gift from the sea.
The soft red with a slight whitish tint is an elegant hue that also exudes gentleness and refinement .

In the past, coral itself was prized as a symbol of wealth and longevity, and red coral in particular was often given to women as a talisman to ward off evil, ensure safe childbirth , and was considered a "gem that protects life."



Coral also grows in the ocean over a long period of time and stores the power of nature.
Since ancient times, it has been believed to possess spiritual powers and to connect with the gods .

In particular, red coral is said to be a symbol of the power of life and motherhood because of its resemblance to the color of blood.
It has been used in prayers for childbirth, rebirth, and the healthy growth of children.

In addition, as a color associated with the sea god and dragon god, it is used in sea rituals and water festivals .
Coral and its colors were also symbols of purification, protection, and blessings.



A message in coral color

🌸 Warmth that protects life 🌸 Kindness and inner strength 🌸 Blessings and prayers for loved ones

Coral color is not only cute, but also gives you a sense of security, as if you are being protected by an invisible power .
If you decorate a temari ball with these colors, it will become a gift of protection that will quietly embrace you deep in your heart .

Important points to note about Kurashiki Temari

  

Kurashiki Temari are carefully crafted one by one by hand. There are slight differences in the texture of the material, the way the threads are stretched, and the way the patterns appear, so each one has its own unique character. We hope you will enjoy them after reading and understanding the following points.
●Since each item is made by hand, there may be slight individual differences in color, pattern, and shape.
●When using natural materials or plant-dyed threads, the color may change over time. Please enjoy this as part of the texture.
●Please be careful when handling this product as it is sensitive to strong force, impact, and water.
●Storing in direct sunlight for long periods of time may cause fading. Please enjoy in a place that is out of the sun as much as possible. Temari are attractive for their warmth that can only be achieved through handicrafts, and the expressions that can be found in their small differences. We hope you will enjoy the expressions that each "Temari" has.

Folk crafts nurtured in Kurashiki, a city of culture

Kurashiki Temari was born from the fascination with the traditional Kumamoto craft "Higo Mari". Higo Mari is a gorgeous handball that requires advanced techniques to draw intricate geometric patterns with colorful threads. Kurashiki Temari was created when the creator was moved by its beauty and sublimated it into a simple and gentle expression that suits the land of Kurashiki.


The charm of Kurashiki Temari lies in its quiet appearance and simple, warm texture.

Kurashiki is known as the "city of beauty" with art museums and craft galleries scattered throughout the city. This cultural soil has supported the handicraft of Kurashiki Temari, which has been nurtured slowly and carefully.




"Kurashiki Temari" is carefully crafted one by one by hand

 

Kurashiki Temari are carefully crafted one by one by hand.



 


First, traditional rice husks are used for the core. These are wrapped in paper and shaped into a ball. To stabilize the core, thread is wrapped around it several times to give it roundness and elasticity.


In order to pursue the "Kurashiki Temari" style, we use cotton thread that we dyed ourselves.
