Inspired by my washi paper drinks coasters, I was asked to make a pair of rectangular lampshades in same paper to match a turquoise bedroom. Washi paper is so beautiful, really pleased how the shades turned out 😊 Still busy making, so email me at [email protected] if you would like a bespoke item made #kimonospirit #Etsyseller #handmadelampshade #washipaper #upcyclingkimono #paperlampshade #Japaneselampshade #indiemaker https://www.instagram.com/p/CALWcvWgMe2/?igshid=1kkz040s7hirm

Having made lots of kimono patchwork cushion fronts, wondering whether to make matching bed runner/throw? And how much could I sell one for? #KimonoSpirit #patchwork #kimonocushion #upcycling #upcyclingkimono #silkpatchwork #kimonopatchwork #bedrunner #bedthrow #kimonobedrunner #etsyseller #etsykimonospirit https://www.instagram.com/p/B_sY1y6AvSi/?igshid=uxto0ddsl7ut

The task I hate...cutting strips of black silk kimono fabric to use in between the patchwork kimono squares. The blade on my cutter never seems sharp enough...any tips?? #KimonoSpirit #vintagekimono #upcycling #upcyclingkimono #handmade #handmadecushions #etsyseller #decorativecushions #patchwork #japanesekimono👘 #trialsofhandmade https://www.instagram.com/p/B_j_AENAz84/?igshid=efnz0w0kj771

The latest fabric to be used in my ‘shoji screen’ cushions. It’s Earth Day and I’m trying my hardest to up/re cycle: upcycling kimono fabric, using thread and zips from recycled materials and packaging made from sugar cane (compostable) #kimonospirit #vintagekimono #upcycling #upcyclingkimono #recyclingkimono #upcyclingfabrics #vintagefabrics #Japanesefabrics #Japanesekimono #Japanesekimonofabric https://www.instagram.com/p/B_R0Y-gAgFG/?igshid=ebywvipyodrs

Beautiful blossom in the Spring sunshine 🌞 I love Japonica flowers more - given the plant is known as Japanese quince why are these beautiful flowers not used in kimono patterns? #kimonospirit #vintagekimono #japonica #cherryblossom #kimonopatterns #kimonocushions #upcyclingkimono #recycledkimono #recycledkimonofabric https://www.instagram.com/p/B_AfOYlA89S/?igshid=49k7f4rwcnyw
