Otayori: A New Seasonal Companion from Musubi Lab

Otayori: A New Seasonal Companion from Musubi Lab

Written by Team MUSUBI

We are delighted to introduce otayori, a new quarterly magazine that will now accompany purchases from Musubi Lab starting this spring. This project is a heartfelt endeavor by Team Musubi, aimed at bringing you closer to the beauty and essence of traditional Japanese craftsmanship through the changing seasons.

A Warm Welcome to otayori

Otayori is a Japanese word that means "a seasonal greeting" or "a heartfelt letter"—something that brings warmth and joy upon arrival. We hope each issue, like a thoughtful note from a friend, will bring delight and a sense of connection, as if a piece of Japan has arrived at your doorstep.


Rooted in Japan’s rich heritage of craftsmanship, otayori shares artistry and meaningful moments to enrich your daily life. Each issue will explore a different theme, introducing you to the natural rhythm of the seasons through the lens of Japanese artisanship.

Spring Feature: Make Your Morning Bloom

As the world awakens from winter’s slumber, our inaugural issue is dedicated to mindful mornings—a time to set the tone for the day with peace and intention. Our theme, "Make Your Morning Bloom," invites you to infuse your day with tranquility and purpose through simple Japanese practices. Discover how the philosophy of teinei-na kurashi—living with thoughtfulness and mindfulness—can transform your morning routine.


Whether it’s sipping tea while admiring delicate spring blooms or embracing a moment of stillness before the day unfolds, small rituals can bring calm and joy into your life.


Curious to learn more? Look forward to the full feature in otayori’s first issue!
