My daughter got a beautiful batik shirt for her birthday from her friends. Batik is a cloth that is traditionally made using a manual wax-resist dyeing technique in Indonesia. The mom has a great taste and she knows all the great places to shop and dine. She’s the one who picked a gorgeous cafe, Huize van Wely in Papillion in Kemang for a farewell tea, which I posted about the other day. I would want one myself if it comes in an adult size. I love it. So does she. So stylish and beautiful, don’t you think?
娘は、幼稚園のお友達から誕生日プレゼントにこの素敵なバティックのシャツをいただきました。バティックとはインドネシアの伝統的な染め物の布の事です。もちろんこの服を選んだのは、娘のお友達のセンスの良いママなのです。先日ブログに掲載したクマンのパピリオン内にあるHuize van Welyをお茶会に選んだりするセンスの光る友人です。大人サイズがあったら私も買って着たいくらい。娘もとても気に入っている様子。
hai Kaho….
I really enjoy your Friday Finds articles.
But since you are still in Jakarta I’d like to recomend you the Tugu Hotels Restaurants in Jakarta. They are very unique, antique, with very strong Indonesian atmosphere. You can check it at http://www.tuguhotels.com. I really love it there and the price is reasonable. My husband and I find it fascinating. Dinner for 2 is about USD 30.
Ike, thanks for your recommendation! I am always on a look for a new place although with 3 kids and the youngest being so small, I don’t get to go out so often. Thank you for reading my blog, too!!
adorable! i have a four-year-old niece who would look so cute in this 🙂
Thanks! You have a four-year-old niece! I bet it’s fun to shop for her!
Do you have any idea where the shirt is from please? My daughter would love one!
Mel, thank you for the comment! I just sent a message to my Japanese friend in Jakarta who bought it for my daughter. I will let you know where she bought it.
