When you ask for a card holder, here they are the NEW ARRIVAL! 😍 Only the cutest ones for our loveliest customers! 🥰 Available in 4 adorable designs. Message me to reserve yours, or get yours asap right here at Kupuku! 😘

Specially for those who go back to school with a school uniform, Kupuku has these kawaii nezumi socks for you! 😍 I know that the uniform socks have to be plain, but ssstttt... 🤫 if you wear long pants, they won't see the mouse print. 😁✌

These super comfortable socks are made from 98% cotton and 2% elastane... good for your feet! They fit shoe size 35-40.

I got these socks also for my daughter who studies in a school with a uniform since 2 years ago. Even though I picked this school for her, I completely disagree with the uniform rules! I prefer comfort, and I see there is nothing wrong wearing a t-shirt with jogger pants and sport shoes to school. I have to search the internet each time to find the right pants with the right color, materials, and fitting. Finding plain brown leather shoes that fit comfortably for my daughter is also another drama. I don't get it when people said that it is easier going to school with a uniform rather than those without a uniform! 🤷‍♀️ Anyway, these socks are equally cute for those without a uniform. 😘

The cutest erasers are back! 😍 They are so cute that some of you don't even want to use them. 😅 Instead, you would rather keep them as miniatures or toys! These are the original Iwako, made in Japan. Only limited quantity available! Grab yours at Kupuku before they are sold out again!

Back-to-School in a Kawaii Style, we got you covered! 😘 See you soon at Kupuku, the cutest Japanese store in Antwerp! 🩷

Dear Kupuku friends,
It's time for me to go home to visit my parents again. They mentioned that it's too short... I should be there for 2 months! 😅 No worries, I'll be gone for about 3 weeks only! 😁✌

Kupuku is closed on 6-29 July 2024. Please make sure you get all those pretty, kawaii goodie gifts before our summer break!

Wishing you all a wonderful summer filled with happiness and nice memories! 😘

❤ Silvia and Taro

Cuteness overload is wearing these socks on your feet! Oh, I looooove them so much!!! 😍❤ Don't you?

Number 8 has been taken by me for my personal collection. 😁✌️ Get yours now or message me to reserve one!

It's the Japanese Cat Day today! 🐈 That's because February, 22 resembles the words "nyan nyan nyan" or meow meow meow in English. Wishing you all a Purrfect Day with your neko-chan! 😽❤️ Taro is feeling indifferent though! 😅
#猫の日

Her name is Harugeshiki, which means 'Spring scenery'. She was born from the wood of Mizuki tree, and handcrafted by master Fumio Tomidokoro. 😍 Kokeshi are gorgeous Japanese wooden dolls that are skillfully handmade by artists from the land of the rising sun. They are believed to bring good luck and protection to their owners. The beauty of Kokeshi has stolen the hearts of many people around the world including myself since I discovered them for the first time in 2007. 🥰 Would you adopt Harugeshiki and her Kokeshi sisters at Kupuku? 😊

Price €72.95

Another creative creation by one of our youngest customers using our BEST SELLER stickers, isn't it pretty? 😍 Well done, girl! 😊👍

More choices are available at Kupuku! 😘

Price €3.95/box.
