These babies along with another piece should be with their new owner now. Hopefully, they are very happy with them. They were a brooch set, but my customer prefer them as hair ornaments. #handmade #cosmic #alternativefashion #japaneseart #elevenseshour #つまみ細工 #かんざし #宇宙

Iris - Last year, I saw some exceptionally beautiful Irises in the botanical garden in Sheffield and I fell in love with them. Looking forward to seeing them again this year. Irises symbolise wisdom, hope, trust and valor. Isn't that wonderful? #HandmadeHour #accessoires

It's March. Winter is still on fire.
Seeing how Ukrainians experienced the same trauma and their resolve gave us so much strength and hope. Stand with Ukraine.

Happy Luna New Year 🎆
Japan used to adopt the Lunisolar Calendar & celebrated Shogatsu the same time as the rest of East Asia. It wasn't until the Meiji Restoration when Japan synchronised their festivals dates with the Gregorian Calendar.#HandmadeInUK #japaneseart #かんざし
