05/07/08 - May Kanzashi Feature

Although originally intended to be launched on the 1st of every month, my apologies for this article being put up later ... a bad case of the cold, but luckily all is well now.

Anyway, I'm pleased to say that there is now a article detailing the kanzashi that are typically represented during the month of May, in the traditional sense of course.

Ah, the lovely iris and the beautiful blooming wisteria! Please check the link to the right to learn more about the structure and look of these wonderful May kanzashi. Or visit the kanzashi feature section to learn more about other months.

04/01/08 - April & An Artisan!

We have another kanzashi artisan being featured this month known as Regynx on Flickr and Little Cookie over at Etsy. She has previously contributed to the site by allowing me to use images of her kanzashi and has been a very cool person to message.

To see her interview, please go to the Artisan Feature section located under Articles.

Also, available for the beginning of April is a more in depth view of the traditional seasonal kanzashi worn during the month of April. Please click the April Kanzashi Feature image on the right or visit the Kanzashi Feature section also found in Articles to view more about April and other months.


 



03/14/08 - Artisan Feature & March Feature


As stated in the last update, two artisans will be featured each month. That being the case, the next kanzashi artisan interview, featuring Amaebi, is up for your viewing pleasure located in the articles section under artisan feature area.

Also, although not mentioned in this month's first update, an article featuring a more in depth look into the month of March kanzashi was added to the site. If you haven't checked it out yet, please feel free to do so.

 



03/01/08 - Artisan Feature


To start off the month of March, the Artisan Feature section has been launched.
This section holds various interviews with kanzashi artists.

I am hoping that these interviews bring greater understanding towards the craft of kanzashi making, as well as an awareness of talented and inspired artists in the kanzashi & kimono community.

Every month, two kanzashi artists will be featured. Kanzashi Garden's very first interview was taken with the very nice Songbird. To see her feature, please look in the artisan feature section located in the articles area.
