It’s used to create delicate floral hair ornaments (tsumami kanzashi), worn by #maiko (apprentice #geisha ) and young women in #kimono during special occasions like graduations, weddings, or coming-of-age ceremonies. In this tsumami zaiku workshop, we’ll craft a sakura-themed hairpin in soft pink hues. For the first time, we’ll explore creating "sagari"—the delicate, dangling petals that adorn maiko hairstyles in #Kyoto (but only during their first year of training). 2/4

The beauty of a maiko’s costume lies in these cascading petals, swaying gently near her face. Our creations can be embellished with pearls or tiny bells, adding a soft chime to every movement. We’ll use a clip-style base, perfect even for those with short hair. The workshop will focus on the maru tsumami technique, slightly adapted to recreate the signature scalloped edges of cherry blossom petals. 3/4
