Going on Vacation!

Diane Tuesday, May 24th, 2011 Tuesday, April 17th, 2012admin fanime, hiatus, vacation 0

Updates will be a little sparse for the next few weeks – tomorrow morning I fly out to San Jose to attend Fanime and then spend some quality time with Naomi!! We’ve got lots of kimono shenanigans planned, so hopefully I will have lots of great photos for you when I get back!

    My friend sends me the most amazing care packages My friend sends me the most amazing care packages from Kyoto. She's been sitting on some of this stuff for two years now, since Japan Post wasn't sending things to Canada. Since I'm in California at the moment she sent them here and I am over the moon. ❤️🌸❤️🌸❤️🌸❤️

Behold, proof that I have not kiku'd the bucket. I'm sorry, that was a terrible pun but you put chrysanthemums is a lovely bucket-like container, that's what you get.

I have been in southern California for the past few months and will be here a while longer, which is why I haven't updated in so long.

I have a confession to make; I used to hate shibori. I suspect it was due to my aversion to certain textures and patterns. But as I've gotten older I've learnt to appreciate the beauty and incredible craftsmanship that goes into it, but it still wasn't something I had much of in my collection (aside from some obiage). I also named my pet uromastyx lizard @shibori.the.uro, due to the spots on his back.
