Adventures in felt kanzashi - part 8

I have a soft spot for kusudama kanzashi because they appeal to my inner mathematician.

The rotational symmetry is just nice.  

So when I brought a bag of mixed felt I knew I had to make one.

However, time is never on my side and it is only now that I managed to actually make my idea become a reality.

They are so cute and soft just like the rest of my felt kanzashi.  

Lilac Tsumami Kanzashi Hair Clip by Kitty Kanzashi

Look what I have found in my finished kanzashi box!

I must have made this wonderful kanzashi and left it in my finished box secretly keeping it for my own pleasure to look at but alas it does need a good home.

As you can see these are medium sized kanzashi and you can just wear one for everyday or two if you are going for something fancy.

In fact these will be perfect for a bride who wants something simple yet stunning at the same time.

They are attached onto alligator hair clips which have been road tested by myself and I can safely say these will not move an inch unless you want them too.

So why not head over to my etsy store if you are interested in them.

*** Tsumami Kanzashi ***

Once the pursuit of the royal maidservants, "tsumami kanzashi" or "pinching hair accessories" have long been worn for centuries by Japanese women to decorate their ornate hairstyles. Nowadays they are mainly worn on special occasions or by artists called maiko and geiko.

Each petal is made from one square of fabric carefully folded using tweezers and then delicately arranged onto a base to create the flower of choice. Precision is key with this tsumami technique and many hours of practice (and patience) is required to be able to produce these flowers. Howwever once mastered, this technique offers the artisan the freedom to create unique flowers which are as charming as the real object which will never wither away.
