15th February 2015

"It's HIZUMI who is having a cold again thanks to the coldness that have been lasting every day.
Today I am informing you about a new item!

The sales of Rain cafe DESIGN MUG "FOREST" have started today!
This time I've made it easier to pick up to your hands and I was thinking about doing a calm design, so I made the design image as the sunlight shines through the trees at a forest.

I used gold which is rare and when looking at the item I noticed that the image (background colour white vs black) changes depending on the place where you are. So I think it will be fun to select different places to be when using this.

Welcome to have relaxing moments with Rain cafe DESIGN MUG "FOREST"..."

"Once again it's HIZUMI! Laughs
The sales of a new item "UMBRELLA Vivid color bangle" start today at 18 o'clock!
This item increases an arm exposure and for the sake of summer I was thinking about making a coloured design item for wrist.
It's been a while since I did acrylic graphic print. The material encloses vivid color and the material is durable, it is also okay to get wet with water and you can also swim in a pool or in an ocean.
Like usual, the UMBRELLA logo has still carved into it!

Well then just wait for a little while~!"

"Good morning
Since yesterday the UMBRELLA online store maintenance ended and the sales of new items started!

This time there's two new items, UMBRELLA Graphic t-shirts and Rain cafe Cup & Saucer set!

I made the graphic for the UMBRELLA Graphic t-shirts for about one month for the first time.* (UMBRELLA Graphic T-shirtsはこのグラフィックを作り始めてから約一ヶ月もかかってしまいました)
Usually I do many graphics with monochrome, however, this time I wanted to add colours in relation, dyeing colours all over the material...
It took hours to be satisfied myself but eventually the appearance became good.* (時間はかかったけど自分的に満足のいく世界観になったので良かった。)

Rain cafe Cup & Saucer set's cup is simple so I wanted to make the saucer set designed to match the top,
and yet cool, I wanted to make it look elegant so I also made the design as mirror surface.
I wanted to play a little so I arranged an umbrella mark to the bottom of the cup. Laughs
I was thinking that it's good to use the pair this way, I also recommend it as a decoration!

Please love and favour these two items.
Well then see ya~!"

*I'm not sure about these sentences. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Along with the back spine UMBRELLA has started using "Chaos" discharge printing in various places from the end of the last year. This item was recommended from the clothes where the colour was decoulourizated (I'm not sure about this sentence at all!)

Since it's cold I have been frequently wearing this same parka with many combinations. Laughs

It's 8 days till the offline store meeting on 8/24.

If you buy with more than 3,150JPY (tax included) from the offline store, 

you'll be presented umbrella mini sticker (one from six different kinds)!

You can stick an umbrella mark on your mobile or smart phone etc!

And, and!! Since it's summer, there's one more thing! Summer jumbo HIZUMI lottery!! This is also for those visitors who buy something for more than 3,150JPY (tax included)!

Speaking of that... When purchasing with more than 3,150JPY from the offline store you'll not only get the limit rare item on your hands but also the HIZUMI lottery price! Good lord! Laughs

Of course you'll get a hand writed birthday card if it's the month of your birthday, 

that would make it triple benefit then!

Since a long time, since a long time (he wrote it twice himself) I'm looking forward to seeing everybody. There's some new items coming on sale first at the offline store, so certainly take a step (this way).

Let's spend a fun day at the festival like Koenji at the appointed day! Well then~!"
