Today’s post is especially dedicated to all fans of kawaii wallpapers and Japanese characters! As you know, we at modeS4u do LOVE kawaii items and designs, and these include wonderful goodies like those made available by the Japanese brand San-X on their website, namely their delightful wallpapers…which of course we love to share with you all here!
So get ready to revamp your desktop this very instant with the cutest free wallpapers featuring our favorite shy corner creatures: the Sumikkogurashi! The beloved tiny things appear in full color on all designs, and seem to be celebrating their love for food, whether quietly sitting at a well laid table full of Japanese delicacies inside a house, dealing with dough while learning to make bread and pastry at a masterclass, or happily sitting along a counter and enjoying fruit desserts at the strawberry fair. They are true gourmets!!
If you are more into a relaxed mood, there are also a couple of wallpapers about sleeping and dreaming! Take a look at the pictures below, where we have included some details for you to better appreciate these beautiful designs. If you like drawing, or would like to learn to draw, the Sumikkogurashi are a fabulous subject for beginners, with their cleverly sleek shapes 😉 Give them a try, and share your finished drawing with us!
What an interesting meal!
They’re all busy baking!
Time to sleep!

To round off our posts on the Hobby Show that took place in Tokyo this year, we wanted to share pictures of amazing mini clay sculptures featured at the event. Japanese clay is incredibly popular amongst arts and crafts enthusiasts due to its high quality and variety. This year, exhibitors pulled out all the stops by showcasing intricate clay sculptures and holding live demonstrations. Attendees also participated and were able to work with clay at different booths. On display were sculptures of food, animals, and flowers. Check out the photos here!
