Golden series kanzashi - completed!

It was a sunny day and I felt in the mood to create my "Golden Series" kanzashi.

Here are the designs.



As I mentioned in a previous post, these three have been called the golden series due to the fabric colour. Of course when I brought the fabric the colour was described as being peach but to my eyes it looks more golden.

So without further delay here they are.

Golden Whirl



Golden Fan



Golden Charm



This is the first time I have created a series of designs with a common theme and they look oh so sweet all together. I must do this more often!

Twitterfeed is annoying me!

I wonder why twitterfeed is not posting my blogger post?

What do I need to do to make it work!

Art in the Garden (Sheffield)

After many hours of deliberating with friends and myself (which has probably made my mother think I have lost my marbles) I have decided to submit an application for a stall at the Art in the Garden event in Sheffield on 4th and 5th September 2010.

For me this is a huge step in getting my little kanzashi business some much needed publicity and to make a modest living doing something that I believe in with all my heart.

But the task ahead of me is a mammoth one as I will need to make enough items for my stall which will be a 8'' by 2'' counter.

Time to start making a list.

Something for Technorati.

This is just a post to claim a blog space for technorati.

So I need to post this code QZV3T6GKWF8B and then wait.

Golden series - new kanzashi designs

After being a good girl and spent the last few days studying, I have come up with three new designs titled the "Golden series".

Called this because the silk fabric is golden in colour.

I will keep the designs under wrap until I have made them so keep your eyes peeled for them.

Correlation between music and fashion.

While out shopping with my friend today, we started to talking about the music and we both agree that 80's music is the best. However 80's fashion is just dreadful!

So this lead to the question, is there a indirect relation between music and fashion? I.e good music but bad fashion.

So the 90's is in the middle grounds but the last 10 years the fashion has been good but the music is just awful! Of course there have been exceptional bands and artists but overall the music has been bad in my opinion.

What do you think?

New addition to kimono wardrobe.

I have no idea what possessed me to get a paper umbrella from ebay but I did.



Not bad for $36.99 (not including postage yet). Now I need to find a way of maintain it so I can try to use it as a parasol.

Another accessory ticked off my list!
