Kokeshi

I recently put my Kokeshi collection on display.  Inspired by these shadow boxes and this conversion, I used a cutlery drawer from Ikea and some Japanese paper.



It hangs on the wall near our front door and I just love seeing them whenever I walk past.

  3. You've done a beautiful job, it looks amazing. The one with the draginflies painted on is just sublime, and the one with just a wee face, wow!
    I picked up my first kokeshi doll op-shopping the other day, it doubles as a pen!

  7. Love it! Your collection is great - I love the older more "rustic" kokeshi like yours. Picked up at temple markets?

Thank you for taking time to comment, I treasure each and everyone one of them. I always reply to them in my head, but must confess, these days it takes me much longer to actually email that reply.
