TanabataWishes' Shop Announcement

Thank you so much for visiting my shop, featuring craft items inspired by a variety of Japanese handicraft traditions, including origami, temari, and shibori.

The city where I lived in Japan, Sendai, is most famous for its Tanabata celebrations. During this festival, people write wishes on strips of paper and hang them from decorative bamboo poles. One traditional wish for girls to make during Tanabata is for better sewing and craftsmanship skills. The items I offer you here in my shop are the fruits of my own labors to ever increase my skills. I hope you will enjoy them as much as I did making them!

Please feel free to contact me with questions or requests!
