I have coveted one of these since I moved here:
Noren, these sort of door curtains that the Japanese use to divide spaces are one of my favorite things. I hadn't purchased any though, because I don't know why. I loved THIS specific print, not just any old one. Finally one day I decided to get all my yen change together and drive across town to get it. I got ten percent off on this one because it was the display, and the store keeper could not say when he would get a similar one in. It cost about $15.
A few days later, at a second hand store, I spotted this beauty:
It's faded, and it is a different pattern, but still beautiful, still charming. And $2. What luck. What a nice souvenir it will be of Okinawa, perhaps it's future will be as a guard for a bedroom door, or keeping the sun out of a hallway once we are stateside

Antoinette,
ReplyDeleteJust stopping by to say a quick hello! Thought the dragon curtain was awesome as was the cupcake display and the "daisy dinner". Good wishes. Eileen
