---Kanzashi Background & Care---
Kanzashi are hair ornaments worn in traditional Japanese hair styles, most often seen adorning geisha or maiko. Flower kanzashi are called 'hana kanzashi' and the traditional technique used to make this type is called 'tsumami'.

All of my kanzashi are made using as many traditional Japanese techniques and materials as is possible. The few modern materials I use are only done so to make the assembly stronger for more liberal wear.

Even though these Kanzashi are tougher than they look and hold up very well, they are still a bit delicate by nature and shouldn't be worn out in the rain or high humidity.

---Custom Orders---
Kanzashi are fun to make custom. I'm currently trying to perfect my mounting techniques for larger pieces. If there is anything you have in mind, please feel free to convo me and we'll see if there is anything I can do for you!

-----Payment Info-----
All prices are in US dollars.

For Paypal, payment is due within 2 days of your purchase. Please contact me immediately if you want to pay with a money order to let me know.

Once the money order has arrived, your item will ship, & you will receive an email from me notifying you of shipment.

-----Shipping Info-----
All shipping is done via USPS First Class mail, within 2-3 business days of purchase, but usually within 24 hours. If there are customizations or alterations needed that we've discussed through convo, I'll let you know how much additional time, if any I need.

Happy Gyoza Brooch - Smile Little Dumpling

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 20:19:27 -0500

$5.00
Say "cheese!"

This happy little pot sticker is ready to ride around on your bag or lapel and greet your people with a smile.

He's made of felt, a little puffy and adorable. Hand stitched and hand painted with love. Only the scared rice ball if for sale in this listing. Group shot is just to see him with his friends. The picture with the back of an onigiri pin is just to show what the pin back is like since it is the same as on this gyoza brooch.

He is about 2" wide and 1.5" tall. The gyoza pin in the photo might not be actual pin you will receive - I made these as a batch, so they are all practically identical with only minute 'handmade' differences. I assure you that you'll be satisfied!

Grand Rose Kanzashi Comb

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 17:17:56 -0500

$44.00
This big, fat, gorgeous rose kanzashi is mounted alongside a fan of green leaves. In the center of the rose is a gold crown with the tiniest dew-drop of a crystal, sparkly and iridescent. Simple perfection!

Each individual petal is made of habotai silk that is hand dyed, hand folded and hand mounted with love and skill by me.

They are mounted on a black plastic comb. Not everyone likes to wear hair combs, so my trick for effortless styling is to pull part or all of your hair back into a ponytail, then place the comb behind the elastic or other clip at the base of the ponytail. It'll hang out there all day and you'll never know it was there! It comes in a black glossy gift box, too.

The huge single blossom is about 3.5" wide and just over 1" tall. The fan of leaves is about 1.5" wide. The kanzashi pictured may not be actual kanzashi you will receive - I made these as a batch, so they are all practically identical with only minute 'handmade' differences. I assure you that you'll be satisfied!

It's mounted on a simple metal alligator clip for easy, comfortable wear. It comes in a black glossy gift box, too.

Nintendo DS (Lite) Cozy - Sweet Cloud

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 05:37:02 -0500

$20.00
I noticed that my Nintendo DS was always getting scratched up in my purse and backpack so wanted to cover it, but I wanted something a little bit snazzier than one of those Nerf cases or Mario branded sleeves that you find at the Game Stop.

I made this out of felt with all hand stitched, handmade appliqué - a sweet pink and white cloud hovering over a single yellow star on a blue field. It has pale pink edge stitching and a gorgeous white iridescent button that shimmers a lovely shade of pink, just like the cloud.

This cozy fits the Nintendo DS Lite, but I can take custom orders for these to fit an original Nintendo DS or a PSP. Though it is made for housing a DS, the interior dimensions are about 5.25 in × 3 in × 1 in - it could be used to house anything about that size.

Thanks for looking!

Grand Sakura Kanzashi

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 02:47:23 -0400

$100.00
Warm peachy-pink petals with rosie tips look like a springtime treat. One large flower at the head of this piece is followed by one medium and three smaller flowers, then drifts into twig pieces blooming with fresh buds and leaves. Each flower has a golden stamen center and is mounted individually on the comb The twig pieces are flexible and can be gently guided behind or around the last flower or two to be re-arranged, adding to the complexity of the piece.

Every single petal is hand cut, hand dyed, hand folded and hand mounted by me with love, care and skill.

Not everybody loves to wear hair combs, but it just takes some finesse. Sometimes I wear hair combs behind the top of my ponytail if I don't want to pull my hair up in the front. It looks really cute! This one would look great with hair in an up-do or French twist.

The larger bloom is 2" wide, the medium one is 1.5" wide and the three smaller ones are 1" wide. The length the longest twig dangles past the edge of the comb is about 3.25" and the comb is about 3.25" wide and 2" tall.
