something new~

A new addition to the Bouquet family.
Now a cuff bracelet!

I love wearing bracelets specially when you are wearing T-shirts sleeveless tops. It just adds to the outfit.
The cuff stays close to you and is different from the other bracelets where they are loose around your wrist.  It's one of the item I am wearing all the time now.

So I had shots of when I was coming up with this design. I was first drawing it out but it was just easier to do a mock up in wax. It seems like it is the best way for me. I could feel it and see it in 3D.



and so I chose the best one to be the one on the right. As you can see I've started to make more decisions on that one.

and the finished piece!




its a photo (that I took) so it looks better in person.

bananas!





This building is located between Akihabara and Okachimachi. It doesn't seem to be used for bananas anymore. I'm sure it was once filled with bananas. Maybe when it was an expensive imported fruit. I'm sure but I feel like my mother had told me that a long time ago.


I pass by it quite often now that I am doing an event in at the "Hacoa Store" in Okachimachi. 
There through July I am selling a collaboration pieces with the brand Hacoa, who designs and makes wooden objects. 








Lately I've been having frozen banana treats. 

It's  perfect for the hot weather. and you don't feel too bad eating it for a late night snack.

Healthy and simple. 
I remember eating this for snacks when I was like 5. I'm glad my mother has raised me on it. I think I'll pass it on too.

Ok now back to what I was doing.
