What is Kanzashi? Well, the actual full name is Kanzashi Tsumami but everyone calls them Kanzashi for short instead. It is the traditional Japanese art of fabric folding into petals and forming into flowers. Recently, new techniques & styles of folding have been invented and introduced. Besides flowers, you can find insects like butterflies, bugs formed using traditional Kanzashi or Kanzashi styled petals.
Our new items are made with both traditional and my own invented styles of petal folding. You'll find brooches - perfect for adorning that bag of yours or even pinning that slipping scarf, hair accessories like barrettes, bobby pins, alligator clips, pony elastics, stretchy headbands for kids & adults, adjustable rings for any ring size and earrings. I use fabrics like cotton, silks, lame, corduroy, leatherette, etc. These items are available here, etsy and at Sunflower SG.
