Wonderful information and absolutely stunning work! As you could tell from my work I am obsessed with flowers so to see this is heavenly, as I too am fascinated by the geisha culture and Japan in general.

Oh yes - hours. I spent about 20 of those on these ones, and I think I may have spent more than 24 on my latest set - the plum blossom one.

How fantastic! I've always admired the hair ornaments of Geisha (and geisha-in-training) but I'd never dreamed of making them. I applaud your patience and skill. The choice in fabric and design is very tasteful ^_^

Thanks! Yep, I make custom kanzashi. Just drop me a note and I'll see what I can do. Keep in mind, though that fulls sets like this can get rather pricey. They take a very long time to make.

Thanks! I'm not sure what you mean by reference - like a picture of ones made professionally or something?

I actually felt rather stupid after posting that. Because I looked in your gallery and you have it posted. Would it be to much trouble to ask for the words without the backgrounds? I would like to print a version. Yeah by reference I meant were you learned how to make them.

Well, I'll have to see what I can do about that. I didn't really save the words seperate from the pictures, but I'll try and copy them for you. In terms of learning how to make em, though. I pretty much taught myself, and then confirmed what I'd come up with in a book I bought on ebay.

Thats really neat that you figured out how to on your own. I have to use patterns for anything I make, sadly.
