Mochi, or rice cakes, are an important part of New Year's celebrations in Japan.

Cinnamoroll makes the perfect impression as ‘kagami mochi’, a mochi decoration in almost every Japanese home from late December. Kagami means 'mirror', which is why both layers are round.

The two mochi signify a look into the coming and going years. The orange atop the head, called ‘daidai’, sounds like the word 'generations' in Japanese, signifying familial continuation.

Cinnamoroll sits on a traditional 'zabuton' cushion, which represents meditation, and we can only guess that Cinnamoroll is contemplating his goals for next year.

YumeTwins Exclusive Cinnamoroll Kagami Mochi Plushie

The first meals of the new year signify a wish for health & wellness.

Whether it's a traditional dish of ‘toshikoshi’ soba noodles or ozoni soup, essential to both is the humble bowl. Light and easy to hold, this bowl is ideal for Japanese table manners that allow the drinking of broth without spoons.  

Inspired by beloved Ghibli films 'My Neighbor Totoro' & 'Spirited Away', Totoro's design has 'wagasa' Japanese umbrella patterns to represent durability. No-Face's backdrop has 'seigaiha' or 'blue ocean waves' to represent peace & good luck.

Use this bowl often to keep the positivity of New Year's alive in daily life.

It’s a magical time of year, but the days are short. We need extra light to dissipate the darkness!

Hello Kitty is never afraid of a costume change, and with each persona she represents you'll get a look into different aspects of Japanese folktales and myths involving characters or motifs that bring good fortune and healing in their respective stories. 

Each variation of Hello Kitty is three-dimensional, and the precise details are illuminated by a color-changing LED light that will bring warmth and brightness to your space.

Most people in Japan include a visit to their local shrine as part of their important New Year traditions. 

A Time of Firsts:
This first visit of the year is called 'hatsumode' and is meant to bring good luck to those who partake. Participants obtain an ema plaque and write their biggest wish or goal for the upcoming year directly onto it. The plaque stays in a designated spot for the rest of the year and is prayed for continuously by the resident caretaker.

Design:
Inspired by the traditional horse designs, we've added a more YumeTwins-like twist by interpreting it as a sweet unicorn! 

Crafted to be texturized and 'bumpy' for a realistic '3D' effect, these magnets have a sense of presence to give your prized mementos the attention they deserve. Each depicts a kawaii animal enjoying must-visit sights of Japan. And not just cute but strong as well, it’s able to hold multiple pieces of paper together at once.

Don’t you love the super long ears? Leave as is or tie together in a ribbon or knots to easily hang it somewhere in your room for a funky decoration.
