Description This was one of the most intriguing mini-traditional projects ever, and I'm almost sorry that I had so little time to spend on it (less than one week)

This was made to be fit for a certain person, and I've decided to make a Kaede Momiji (turning maple) kanzashi, so it fitted the month of birth of the person.

This was hand-dyed silk, golden thread and Swarovski

Quite lovely. I love your take on this design-- and lovely shade of red, my dear!

Your special person will undoubtedly be quite happy with this one, my dear. great job!
