Description A pretty color scheme for a gorgeous and ornate hair pin. I haven't made a hankusu (half-sphere, chrysanthemum style) in a while, but I like how it turned out. I was trying to make it 4inches wide, but....I couldn't...it's still 3.5" even with the leaves. but it still commands a lot of attention.

The kimono fabric we chose makes for a nice statement piece. Designed to go with a lovely customer's unique yukata. ♥

Thoughts?

It's almost a ravenclaw theme, isn't it? The bold lines in the print almost look like it's hiding a drawing in the kanzashi!

Oh, yes, now that you mention it! With these shades, it's quite a lovely match of color-- though I always thought it was a bit "?" before. Hmmm!

Yeah~ there was indeed a drawing (of flowers. ) on the fabric before I cut it up, but now it's just as it is. interesting~
