Chihori Sonoda Washi Tape - Tori no Otoshimono
Tori no Otoshimono (meaning bird droppings) is humorous foil-stamped masking tape by artist Chihiro Sonoda, featuring serene birds and their "bird droppings." The unique design highlights the droppings with sparkling gold foil-stamping and is sure to make you smile.
Colorful and simple, Japanese masking tape, also referred to as washi tape, can be torn by hand and is easy to reposition. The tape can be used on paper, objects and walls. Washi tape is ideal for temporary decoration, for tiny objects to entire rooms, and for ordinary or special occasions throughout the day, from sealing a lunch bag to making a wrapped gift look special. Not only that but it is made from paper so it is biodegradable and compostable.
Chihiro Sonoda is an artist known for her embroidered works such as brooches and earrings. She created greeting cards for Cozyca in the early days of their production in 2013 and collaborated with them again in 2024. Her illustrations are drawn with beautiful colors and a soft touch. She has a mature style with a touch of laid-back humor, and the balance is very enjoyable.
