Happiness-Inviting Hair Accessory, Kimono Scrunchie, Cherry Blossom Pattern, Silk

<A unique beauty that brings happiness to you> The materials for this piece are kimono fabrics with auspicious patterns, carefully selected from thousands that have been stored away. Each item is meticulously handcrafted with the wish for the happiness of the person who holds it. <A Japanese Gift> We utilize kimono fabrics stored away to create items that give form to the beauty and loveliness held within small pieces of cloth, honoring the adage from Watari Town, Miyagi Prefecture, by elderly women: "Never discard cloth that can wrap three adzuki beans." These are well-received as gifts to express gratitude or greetings. <An Item to Adorn Your Back> A hair accessory that blends seamlessly with any attire, not just kimonos and yukatas. It allows the wearer to express their individuality. Beyond being a retro-modern hair accessory, it can also be used as an arm band or a book band. It's convenient to have one in your bag. <A Symbol of Good Fortune: Auspicious Patterns> Auspicious patterns, considered "symbols of good fortune," connect us to the depth of Japanese culture passed down through generations. <Cherry Blossom Pattern> "Prayer for a bountiful harvest," "Prayer for beauty," "Wealth and prosperity." Cherry blossoms are believed to house the gods of rice, and the blooming status was used to predict the year's harvest. <The Joy of Gazing, The Pleasure of Collecting> Kimono fabrics with auspicious patterns that delight the eyes are items that bring a sense of happiness just by looking at them. By collecting your favorite pieces, you can enjoy creating your own personal gallery. *Photos are for illustrative purposes only. Items are sold individually.

By picking up our creations, kimono fabrics that have been dormant in closets across the country find new purpose. We are active with gratitude towards our customers who help us expand the cycle of upcycling. We introduce our regional resource upcycling efforts in a video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgrpvHXTt6Q <Points to Note When Purchasing> *As all items are handmade, please understand that each piece is unique, with slight variations in size, shape, and pattern. *In rare cases where we obtain kimono fabric in excellent condition, multiple items may be produced from the same fabric. Please note that the pattern placement may differ slightly from the photos due to fabric cutting. *Colors and textures may appear different on screen compared to the actual product. If you have concerns, please inquire or refrain from purchasing. *As the kimono fabrics are often used and unlabeled, their materials cannot always be identified. They are thoroughly inspected, processed (washed, etc.), and then upcycled. Some fabrics may fade or shrink when wet, so please handle with care. *Items are also sold on other sites, so please forgive us in case of a sell-out.
