Shitamachi Fun Crafts Museum

[Shiraji] June 30, 2015 09:00

 Shitamachi Fun Crafts Museum is a traditional Japanese craft shop in Ningyocho!

On the first floor of the building on the right right after entering the road from Ipponzutengu Shrine in amazake Yokocho from Ningyocho-dori, you can easily see it.

 The shop is full of items that make use of traditional Japanese craft techniques such as kimonos, obis, braids, and bags, as well as hair ornaments.

 It is a shop that mainly focuses on recycled kimono and handmade crafts founded in 1994, but originally it was a kimono shop, and the eyes of seeing the goods are certainly recycled, but kimono made with real traditional techniques Although it is recycled, kimonos and obis are sold at a surprising price. Of course, there are also new products.

 There are lots of kimonos. JPG

 It's a shop with the thought that you don't want to break down the culture and skills of Japanese clothing somehow.

Recommended for those who are interested in Japanese clothing or want to wear kimono.
In addition, as souvenirs overseas, we also have small items such as Japanese accessories, Japanese decorations, and towels that can feel the elegance of Edo.

 In even-numbered months, a free dressing class is held. (No matter how many times you participate, it seems to be free.)
In addition, in the "petit dressmaking classroom", you can learn simple "sleeve length", "sleeve straight", "semi collar", etc., and you can make your own original band etc. There are also classrooms such as twice a month).

Those who are interested in kimono! Why don't you take a look at it?

[Chuo-ku to enjoy with children] #07: Easy-to-use nursing room (Nihonbashi)

[Dye] June 26, 2015 09:00

It's been a long time since m(__)m

This time, the nursing room at COREDO Nihonbashi

 

Including Ginza Mitsukoshi, commercial facilities in Chuo-ku are full of facilities with children! I think this is especially easy to use and recommended.

 

I think it's going to be mistaken for Coredo Muromachi (in front of Mitsukoshi)....

Colled Nihonbashi is directly connected to Nihombashi Station.

One of the underground entrances. It's connected to the subway concourse.

By the way, in this photo, it is a staircase, but if you turn the left corner, you can enter without stairs.◎

Baby carriage OK

On the ground. It's at the Nihonbashi intersection of Chuo-dori x Eitai-dori St.

 

The nursing room is on the third floor and is very spacious.

I can't see this size easily. And it's not too crowded!

s16_04.jpg s16_05.jpg

s16_06.jpg s16_07.jpg

Full of equipment! Moreover, it is safe because it is beautiful.

 

Other than here, restrooms in Coredo Nihonbashi usually have children's chairs, so every floor is easy to use.

Thank you very much, Mr. m(_ _)m

 

The passage inside the store is large, and there are a lot of wonderful shops.

Some shops could go with children, and in fact, I took a one-year-old child and used it several times.

 

I think there will be more opportunities to go out for summer, but if you remember one, it will surely be useful ~ ^^

An antique in love @ Momoo

[Nanako Tsukishima] June 23, 2015 09:00

There are several galleries with a tea room in Ginza, but today we have the "Ancient Art Momoo" in 7-chome.

I would like to introduce it.

  

This is a gallery that deals with old tea utensils and Buddhist art. In the back of the store, it was named "Aomine-an".

There is a tea room with a two-tatami medium board, and there is a different space that makes you forget the hustle and bustle of Ginza.

 

Some of the antiques in the store are gems that can be stored in a glass case and displayed in the museum, and the atmosphere that transcends the ages has been fully conveyed to me as an amateur.

It's a blissful moment for those who are interested or connoisseurs.

 

What I felt a little closer was that the owner, Tominaga, quit his office worker at the age of 50 and opened a shop. The name "Momo Blue" is the name of Matsuo Basho, who abandoned lower-class samurai and went on a strange path, and he attached himself repeatedly. Despite the difficulties, the personal connections built with daily learning and the good personality of the shopkeeper seem to support a happy second life that combines hobbies and benefits.

The wonderful wife with a smile has a classroom for finishing (bags for placing tea utensils), and there are many students from far away.

Wrap your favorite tea bowls and jujube in a handmade coat will increase the loveiness.IMG_5315.JPG

It was a really nice and calm gallery for both couples.

 

It is a gallery in Ginza that has a high threshold and cannot take a step forward.

Why don't you use the "art gallery night party" or "town walk tour" to interact with the real thing? You may have encounters with fascinating works or wonderful shopkeepers.

 

Follow basic manners such as greetings and handling of baggage.

Would you like to make your gallery debut?

From June 6, "ToHO Cinemas Nihonbashi", which is located in Coredo Muromachi 2-chome, Nihonbashi Muromachi, "Tomoro Land" has been screened.

Speaking of "Tomololand", it is the theme land of "Future" in Disneyland, but this movie "Tomololand" is an original work inspired by Walt Disney's dream plan.

tohocin3.JPG

"TOHO Cinemas Nihonbashi" is a cinema complex that opened last year with state-of-the-art video and audio equipment, and this "Tomoroland" was also enjoyed with its original standard large screen "TCX" and Dolby's innovative cinema sound "Dolby Atmos"

The sound swirls.

Do you like Japanese sake?

[Pampon] June 8, 2015 09:00

Hello.

It's on top!

In this article, I will introduce you to my favorite shops. The shop is also a "sake".

This is an introduction of Bar that I would like to recommend to those who like it.

Do you know the "Sake Bar Kawaguchi Hotel"?

The location is 2-9-6 Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku (behind Nihonbashi Takashimaya). The landmark is a long-established store in Edo Nihonbashi.

It's "Anako specialty store Tamai Honten". The Kawaguchi liquor store is located in the alley behind the tamawe, and, in other words,

It is a shop with a small hideaway atmosphere.

GetAttachment6.jpg

This shop is actually a shop opened by Tamai Honten, and it seems that it was made by renovating the liquor store "Kawaguchi Shoten".

The 1st floor is a standing drink style, and the 2nd floor is a table seat. We have a selection of sake from all over the country.

It's a nice and cozy bar.☆

In particular, we recommend "3 kinds of sake set", which is 3 to 4 kinds of sake for each region, nearly 20 kinds in total.

You can choose the one you like from among them. Even if you are not familiar with alcohol, there is a chart table of taste in the menu.

So you can choose it with confidence.

This photo was taken when I went to drink with my father.♪

GetAttachment7.jpgGetAttachment8.jpg

The appetizers of the sake were also very delicious.

GetAttachment10.jpgGetAttachment9.jpg

When I passed in front of the shop on June 3, there was a sign saying, "I started summer sake."

"Summer sake" ... It's a very cool sound.

Since the 1st floor is a drinking bar, it is good to use it between meetings, book the 2nd floor and have one hand sake.

It's also good to have a deep story that you can't usually do.

I feel a little too astringent at the "Women's Association", but anyway, before the summer performance begins, I want to make sake.

I want to enjoy it! I recommend it to you.

Tai Chi

[Old Rose] June 3, 2015 18:00

 From 7:30 every Saturday, Tai Chi is being held on the "Water Terrace" of "Harumi Triton Square".

 In case of rain, it will be held in the square in Triton Square.

 

In the various movements of Tai Chi, the gentle and clear voice of the teacher who teaches us gives us even more energy.

 

My favorite word is "put your eyes far away."

 

Every day, I live a busy daily life, and only Saturday morning feels a very quiet and fulfilling morning.

 

Also, my friends are very friendlyAries.

When joining, there is no particular procedure, etc., without entering the name.

You don't need to be notified of attendance on the day.

 

I am also fascinated by the gentle and sounding voice of the teacher, and I go there every time.
