that original piece was a present for my friend's engagement! So I won't be recreating it exactly. but a simplified version is available on my etsy shop. [link] <-- etsy
Or if you seriously wanted something all your own, I do take commissions on a limited basis. (about 2 a month, and it takes a month to complete the order...)

yep, I don't usually mix flowers in the trailing shidare unless it's all flowers, but we were going for a floating lotus amidst lily pads...

I'm glad you like the shades!

枝垂れ桜 (しだれさくら)& 枝垂れ柳 (しだれやなぎ)。 From "Weeping cherry blossoms" or "Weeping willow." I've also heard them called 下がり (さがり) かんざし。

No one can agree on what to call them, but I figure shidare is good enough. ♥

Beautiful!

It's a very vivid lotus glowing in the midst of a tropical rainfall.

Great work as always!

Oh but I do love it--you really captured the idea of the moonlit pond I had, and I thank you so much for the work. :3

you are my favorite Quyen.

I'm glad I was able to get the image you were looking for! And, I was quite happy to play with the colors.

Also, did you want the morning glory clouds on U-Pins, attached next to the lotus, or unattached to ANYTHING for you to decide what to do with later? ^_^?

You did so well, as always~

U pins? Um. Hm. Don't suppose you have time to send me a drawing of what you had in mind?

The blue colors are really nice and vibrant. I do like the addition of the tinier lotus flowers floating along in the petal falls. I'm not sure whats so sick about this, perhaps a vegan extremist who disproves of using silk fabric?

hanatsukuri In reply to starsinmyteacup [2011-07-02 20:52:26 +0000 UTC]

I like the blue colors too! And yes the mini lotus floating is a fun touch! That was 's idea. ♥♥ Glad you like it and thank you for the comment~

(No idea about the random sick comment, but I suspect it is spam. ^^)

I don't think I've ever seen one of your hair pieces that didn't look great. I admit to being really jealous, since half of my kanzashi flowers turn out horribly. XD

I don't know that I've seen one of your kanzashi recently. The only thing I have is LOTS and LOTS of practice.
