Strawberry House!
Tuesday, 28 July 2009Thank you to those who left comments on my previous post, i'm so grateful and at the same time i'm a bit overwhelmed. I never thought of taking photos of my neighbourhood before i started this blog, never thought there is anything attractive about it at all. But since i started sharing my photos here i slowly realised (or you made me realise) that there actually is something beautiful about what i see in my daily life that is worth photographing! So now I enjoy every casual walk or bike ride thanks to you and that is a real joy i find in my daily life. So thank you really!
Well, in the previous post i think i made many of you wonder what that strawberry thing is! Yes, it's a "strawberry house", the cutest sanrio shop filled with lots of kawaii stuff like HELLO KITTY. I was never really a big HELLO KITTY girl bit i used to loooove going in there when i was a little girl, it was like a dream, and now i go in there as a big girl to get little goodies for my little neice :)

P.S. I have updated my shop, lots of ku:nel and lingkaran backnumbers are now on sale! They are very popular so be quick ;)
If you can't find the "Add to Cart" button, that means it's sold out. But I take requests also so please feel free to ask me!
thank you for posting. tokyo seems so exotic and different. great to see everyday views.
ReplyDeleteAh wow that house is amazing!
ReplyDeleteYes it is so interesting to see the daily-life places so far away and different.
wow! this house is so funny.
ReplyDeleteIt's great to experience the world through a camera lens, you look at it very differently I think! Enjoy and please post more pics from Tokyo, it is very interesting to see. :)
ReplyDeleteI love Sanrio. Growing up in the Philippines, Sanrio was a popular brand. Most sought after. So, when I took my first trip to Japan in 1984, I went crazy for Sanrio stuff - Hello Kitty, Strawberry Shortcake, My Melody, Little Twin Stars, The Vaudeville Duo, etc. Thanks for taking me down memory lane!
ReplyDeleteoh that strawberry is so cool. it's definitely on my list for my next visit :)
ReplyDeleteすごくかわいい!!
ReplyDeleteHello shirley Dockerill,
ReplyDeletethank you for visiting! i guess tokyo IS an exotic place for the most of you who come to my blog :)
Hello alice,
If anyone tries to build a house like that now, they'll be sued! I'm glad they did it years ago!
Hello Anna,
Yes it's funny and really cute isn't it? ;)
Hello Ulrika,
I'd say exactly the same to you! I don't know where you live (sweden?) but it's so lovely to see what's like it there ;)
Hello jen,
Sanrio is really popular in Asia isn't it? Those names made me smile too thank you :)
Hello charlotte,
it's kind of away from the main areas you would visit in tokyo, but there are some nice places to see in the Jiyugaoka area which is close to where this strawberry is.
Hello Aron,
かわいいでしょ! ;)
Oh, this is so cute and fun. You can only see that in Japan, I guess... Lovely pictures.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool strawberry! It seems so fitting that it holds hello kitty stuff. I can also imagine it being a lovely dessert place.
ReplyDeleteTo look at your pictures is so satifying to me that I do not need breakfast after that even if it is delicious Natto and gohan and Iwashi...I am already satisfied
ReplyDeleteAh yes, Sanrio. I should have guessed!! Kawaii!!

Fell in love with that strawberry house :)

ReplyDeletewhen was it built and who was it built by???
ReplyDeleteI don't know when it was built but it was there since I was a little girl, I don't know who built it. The sad thing is that this building was demolished and it is no longer there :(
