More Kanji norens added

Hello and Welcome to www.nipponcraft.com,

We have added more kanji letter choices to the Kanji noren curtain series of our website. Now we have setup 68 letters in total. We try to represent each kanji letter in simple English words. A kanji letter usually has multiple meanings but we pick up the most representative meaning.
There are more than 1,000 kanji letters used in our daily life in Japan, but we don't know how much more we can add choices in our website. Maybe our goal is 100 in total. I hope you could find your favorite letters from the sets.

By the way, it is snowing in Tokyo today. We don't have much snows in Tokyo usually. The railway trains are delayed due to the snow. The train system is often confused by snowy weather in Tokyo.

Thank you!

Japanese Yen weaken

Hello and welcome to www.nipponcraft.com,

It may be a good news for global customers that the Japanese Yen has got weaken slightly against major currencies. Since the listed prices on our website are Japanese Yen, it is preferable for overease customers that Yen is weak against dollars and euros. As of today, 1USD=79Yen and 1EURO=105Yen. Yen got weaken slightly since February 14th, when the minister of Bank of Japan stated the goal of inflation target of 1% of Japanese economy. He was pushed hard by some politicians to take the roll of turning the Japanese economy into inflation. I hope the Yen will continuously get weaken.

Thank you!

Origami papper

Hello and Welcome to www.nipponcraft.com

Origami is the Japanese washi paper for fold-and-play. You can turn origami into many kinds of animals and flowers as you can see in the photo below.  (A Nipponcraft staff created a crane, a horse, a dog, a rose, a morning glory, and a armor helmet. ) These techniques can be found in various web sites by keyword search of origami. Origami would be not only for children's education but also good for brain exercise to keep it healthy and young!
