"It's not just a bird."

December 16, 2021

Hello everyone, I'm Staff OK, and I recently heard Jun Miura and Seiko Ito say on the radio that "a toothbrush is just a brush," and I felt like I had realized something. By the way, I'm not sure what it was. Apparently, the life of a toothbrush is longer than the life of the toothbrush itself.

Now, let's leave the topic of mere brushes aside and move on to today's rug! The rug I'd like to introduce today is one that made me think, "This is no ordinary bird!"

Here.

We're not just talking about birds, we're introducing our members!

1. Tailless Child

First, this one. He looks particularly lonely standing there. All the others have impressive tails, but this one looks like it's had its tail cut off. His expression exudes a sense of melancholy.

2. Speak with your eyes

Next, let's look at the eyes of the birds.

① Wide eyes (・・)

② Relaxed eyes ( - - )

③Smiling (^ ^)

④I'm in trouble (´ `)

⑤Sleepy(◞ ◟)

Depending on the shape of their fur, they can look smiling or depressed. What expressive faces they have! Playing with their fur will surely change their expressions every day. It'll be fun to watch them and think, "Yesterday this one was smiling, today this one is troubled!"

3. Pleasant

He's keeping a good rhythm with his toes.

4.J!

You might be wondering what J! is. Look at your toes. J! (or Shi!).

5.P!

You might be wondering what P! is. Look at the toes. P!

It's P. The low heels are so cute.

6. Mirror writing "n"

I found the mirror image of the letter "n"! "N!"

7. Shy

It's cut off. All you can see is her butt.

The cutting off of this area shows a highly advanced weaving technique that allows us to imagine the space beyond. This is an amazing weaver. No wonder she can weave such a beautiful rug.
