I'm just a little artisan trying to make a living in the wonderful world of arts and crafts ✨ My main techniques are Japanese tsumami zaiku & Chinese chanhua, but I'll basically try anything new I find interesting. mustekukka.etsy.com

I made collages to show off the suncatchers on etsy, but apparently etsy doesn't like collages?? 😅

(I'm keeping them though 😤)

Last one of the new hair combs ✨️

This was also made from old cotton bias tape, I wish I could actually find fabric in this color 👀

I went out to visit my grandparents yesterday, touched some grass (and frogs) and got bitten by 1000000 mosquitoes

It was nice 🌼

This time it's all silk ✨

These two types of flowers are basically my favorites to make out of silk so I ended up making a lot of them 😅

Blue silk & black satin 💙🖤

I've tried making these types of flowers in the past without much success, this time though I was d e t e r m i n e d to succeed 😤

In the end I think I made around 11 flowers, but I think I got pretty okay at making them ✨

Unearthing this app so I can post all the new things I've made and then go back into the void 🌚💦

Here's some silk hydrangeas ✨

The rest of the cherry blossoms 🌸✨

You think that if I make 1000 of these, they'll actually plant the cherry tree park they've been planning in my city since 2022 🤔😅

Hot pink plum and cherry blossoms 🌸🔥

I know people usually prefer light pink for cherry blossoms, but I think these are still nice ✨

Here's more plum blossoms to combat the cold weather ✨
