Kanzashi


After catching a really bad flu from and overdosing paracetamol which caused great issues with my health, I'm finally recovering.

I can't believe I was sick for a week! All those things I was meant to get it done last week obviously haven't been done...

Anyway, I should catch up with my work and social life now!

I'm in a process of getting Kanzashi from Kyoto.  Kanzashi is a hair accessory worn with kimono.  They are available in many different designs for different occasions.

I could get a very traditional one which is made of expensive piece of wood, covered with lacquer and gold flakes but that would be very expensive and you can only wear it  for very formal occasions.

Instead, I'm getting more simply designed ones,  so that you could wear it with casual outfit. I'm sure it will be suitable for formal occasions too.

I should get them early next month so I will let you know when I have it available for sale!

  1. Hi Thanks for the comment and I do feel a lot better now. It's still winter in Australia. I can't wait until it's over!
