Description So this is the set of kanzashi I've been working on recently. It's a series of pieces for someone's wedding. The flowers featured are mainly cherry blossoms, but the bride's piece sees the addition of three little white cala lilies.

This set is comprised of fourteen pieces: 3 single white sakura combs, 3 single white sakura pins, 3 single white sakura clips, 2 larger sakura clips for the flower girl (one in red and white and the other in orange and white), 2 sakura pins with falls for the bride's maids' (they're the 2 red pieces) and the white and red pin with falls for the bride.

I would have liked to get some better photos of these, but the light wasn't co-operating with me. So these will do.

gorgeous set! How many of those pieces would a bride wear.

i wonder if/when i get married what pieces would work with an American style wedding dress. I had not considered wearing a kanzashi, but these are too pretty and beats tiara's any day.

These were mostly for the wedding party. The bride wore only the large, white piece with falls (along with a couple of the small, white clips and pins). Each of the bride's maids wore the large, red pieces with falls. The flower girls wore the two medium, white clips. And the mother of the bride, etc. wore the remaining white pins, clips and combs.

ok thankyou!! I will keep this in mind. IDK if hiding the bride's face with a veil is still done today, but do you think a kanzashi set would look nice placed with one? I hadn't considered ever planning my wedding but my b/f keeps bringin it up (he's meeting my dad next month and I know he will ask for permission) so I think it's best to be prepared. My b/f is Mexican so including a Japanese theme into or wedding might be tough but i really want to have a few things Japanese when we get married(head piece and maybe table settings)

Oh that's exciting! I think it would really depend on the type of kanzashi. I would be concerned about using a kanzashi with falls just because of their wire construction at the back. The veil might get caught between the flowers and re-arrange the flower arrangement (I've seen this happen at a few weddings before - particularly with people who are not used to wearing kanzashi). I would probably go with something sturdier like a clip, comb, or crown kanzashi with the veil. It will be one less thing for the bride to think about keeping looking nice on the big day.

These are stunning! If you were making them only for love, I would ask if you would consider making a tutorial. I love seeing how beautiful things are made. (coughs) I'm also one to watch all of the "extras" on DVDs to see how they put together the story as they did.

Well, that settles it... I'm definitely going to ask you to do the same for my wedding... (whenever that will be).

I'm sorry that the commission thing a while back sort of fell through, but I promise, I WILL buy something once I have some funds.

Thanks! No problem. Just remember to contact me with a note if you'd like to commission me.

Will do! I'll probably buy some of your pre-made ones first, though...

Calla lilies! XD I have a friend who loves those so much. Incidentally, she's also making wedding plans soon. I'll definitely recommend you to her for the comb on her bridal veil.
