  1. I think you're referring to TERUTERU-BOUZU.

    Made of paper or fabric(usually white) with simple face not unlike the smiley face.

    People hang one outside the window when it's raining or is going to rain, when they want the sun to come back.

    "teru" is shine(as in sunshine), "bouzu" means a little boy.


  2. Omamori
