Super cute Momiji dolls!

OMG! I love these Momiji dolls. They are sooooo adorable! Momiji dolls are small, brightly colored hand painted message dolls. Inside each one there’s a tiny folded card for your own secret message, dream or wish. I recently purchased one to give to my long time friend, Shari, for her birthday! I have known Shari since we were in middle school back in Okinawa and she was my very best friend. Of course, I couldn't not get one for myself! I got Shari the "Birthday Girl" momiji (left top image) and I got the "Party Girl" momiji (right top image) for myself. I think of them as modern kokeshi dolls!


So if anyone ever wants to get me a super kawaii gift, I'd love to start a Momiji doll collection! ;)

Enjoy and have a super kawaii day!
