Teruteru-bozu (shine shine, little buddy of mine)


Teruteru-bozu, are little hand made dolls, made from cloth. These dolls are hung outside or near a window during the Japanese rainy season. The dolls are said to bring good weather and keep the day dry.

Here is a great little video showing you how you can make a doll yourself.
