Hanny (Hanao) OOAK Custom Blythe by Irumi March

Hanny (Hanao) is up ready for adoption. She is a special girl (for me). Since she has something that I and my standard consider as flaws. Here it is her photos.

Some flaws:
- She has gaps between scalp and backplate.
- Her nosetril has holes trough her faceplate. I like it, by the way, just in case it is not your taste :)
- Her eye mech sometimes need to manually clicked by hand. It rarely happens actually. Just found out when I take her photos.

It is super hard for me to let her go, really! *sob sob*

Tsumamizaiku Home Decor Crane and Shochikubai - Hiasan Dinding Tsumamizaiku Bangau

Today is my friend's wedding day. So, yesterday, very yesterday I made this (collaboration with my 3 other friends who was confused about the gift and finally decided to make this last minute gift hehee.. >_< ).

Hari ini hari pernikahan temanku. Dia sesama penyuka kimono dan Jepang. Jadi ceritanya kemarin itu, iya kemarin banget saya bikin kado buat dia (kolaborasi sama tiga teman lain sih soalnya kami kebingungan mau ngasih kado apa. Ya udah aku buat ini aja di saat-saat terakhir hehe.. >_<)

I'm so happy with the result. Crane is a symbol of longevity and and good luck. Well, without any disrespect, I didn't actually believe it. I just think that crane is cool-looking (Yes. I'm watching at you, Tsurumaru Kuninaga! >_<). While shochikubai (plum blossom, bamboo leaves, and pine) are symbol of resilience.

Alhamdulilaaah! Suka banget sama hasil akhirnya! Semoga penerima juga suka ya. Bangau itu simbol usia panjang dan keberuntungan. Tapi, tanpa mengurangi rasa hormat, aku sih gak percaya. Aku tahunya bangau itu keren aja hihi (Yeees Tsurumaru Kuninaga, itu kamu nak!). Sedangkan shochikubai (bunga plum, bambu, dan pinus) adalah simbol kesabaran dan ketahanan.

Sekiaaaan~ :)

Tsumamizaiku Home Decor - Hiasan Sakura

A friend's sister was in a search for an unusual gift for her friend's wedding. So my friend reccomended me to her. After browsing trough my past works, she decided to have commission from me. She wanted a decorated photo frame.

Beberapa hari yang lalu adiknya teman lagi mencari kado pernikahan yang unik yang gak bisa ditemukan di tempat lain. Jadi temanku merekomendasikan aku padanya. Setelah melihat-lihat produk yang pernah aku buat, akhirnya dia memilih frame hias untuk kadonya.

Since I think sakura is the popular motif, I choose this particular flowers. Long story short, here it is the result. I made it entirely with chirimen, handpainted on the pink area.

Aku pilih sakura karena kayaknya sakura adalah motif yang populer. Pendek cerita, inilah hasilnya! Bahannya semua chirimen yang diberi cat warna pink di ujung mahkota bunganya.

That white area is where you stick the photo. Alhamdulillaah, so glad I made it in time, because I wasn't feeling well at that time. :(

Area putih itu tempat menempelkan foto. Alhamdulillaah, selesai tepat waktu, padahal waktu itu lagi gak enak badan. :( Sekiaaan~

Hijab and Kimono - Kimono Outing with Friends

We went to Festival of Nations in Bandung, Indonesia. This is a great opportunity to wear kimono （‐＾▽＾‐）

Kami menghadiri acara Festival of Nations di Bandung. Ini adalah salah satu dari rangkaian acara Konperensi Asia Afrika. Akhirnya ada kesempatan jalan-jalan pakai kimono! （‐＾▽＾‐）

I lent my kimono to my friends. We have some good time wearing kimono outside the house! We actually met girls wearing yukata in Japanese alumni booth. But I forgot where I put the picture! Hehe..

Kimekomi Patchwork Sunbonnet Sue

Another kimekomi patchwork project! Again, the design is found via Google (I know this is a useless information but I totally forgot the website! Sorry >_<).

Kimekomi Patchwork Tulip

Kimekomi patchwork in tulip motif. This is not my original design. It's pretty easy to make. Draw a design directly on 5 mm craft foam and trace the design using your knife (remember, without actually cutting it). Then you can start tuck the fabric of your choice on to those tracing line. You might need to widen the line by cutting it a little bit. There is also some parts need a dot of glue. Some parts also need a batting (like the middle part of the tulips as shown on the picture above).

Kimekomi patchwork motif tulip. Ini bukan desain original saya (nemu via Google). Sebenernya cukup gampang kok bikinnya. Gambar desainmu langsung di atas eva spons atau busa ati 5 mm. Lalu kerat desainnya memakai craft knife. Jangan sampai tembus ya mengeratnya. Kemudian selipkan kain motif yang diinginkan di hasil keratan tersebut. Kamu mungkin perlu memperbesar hasil keratan, tinggal dipotong sedikit. Ada juga beberapa area yang membutuhkan lem karena diselipkan saja tidak cukup. Ada juga bagian yang membutuhkan busa lapis. Seperti bagian tengah bunga tulip pada gambar di atas.

I need to write it with example, really. I hope I have time to make some kind of tutorial in the future.

Semoga kelak bisa nulis tutorial yang lebih jelas dan lengkap ya!

Hello world! I'm trying out my previously made kanzashi for hijab. It looks super tidy and easy to wear

Hijab Kanzashi Sakura Pink Gradation

New work! The customer ordered two kanzashi for hijab with sagari. I love this fabric and I worked on it until I got nothing left. Must. Buy. More. T_T

Pesanan dua kanzashi untuk hijab. Kebayang gak bikinnya kayak gimana? Seruuu soalnya jenis kainnya bagus, enak buat dilipat. Tapi saking keasyikan, dibuat terus sampai habis. Mesti restock nih!

I use lapel pin instead of metal kanzashi (of course, because it is for hijab)! It's quite challenging to attach the bouquet but I finally managed to finish it. So happy!!

Untuk bagian jepitnya aku ganti sama tuspin. Awalnya susah tapi ternyata bisa juga memasang bouquet bunga di tuspin. Butuh kerja ekstra, tapi hasilnya bikin happy!! ^_^
