My reasons for giving Masako an orchid dress is very simple: I like orchids. There was a problem though, most orchid petals cover each other, and that hid Masako’s human body shape. That’s why I decided to give Masako’s dress six gaps. How does my flower kokeshi look with her flower petal dress ♡
Usually when I walk. I can see beautiful flowers on a tree near my house. One time when I was walking, all the flowers sadly reached the end of their time, and I could see them on the ground. I still saw the flowers on the ground as beautiful so I brought one home with me. When I brought it home, I was able to see the flower clearly, unlike the times when they were blooming on the tree.
I call this flower a ‘dainty’ flower, because the part that connects the petals to the centre was so much thinner compared to other flowers. Although the flowers near my house can only bloom for a short while, my flower kokeshis can keep blooming for a long, long time ♡
Whenever I go outside, I am surprised by the wonder of nature. Can you see the single thin stem that supports big leaves and other parts of the plant on the gap of the brick wall? I like to put a very thin body on my kokeshis because it looks like the stem of plants.
My flower kokeshi line is about expressing how I see flowers and how I feel about the wonder of flowers. I hope you enjoy my flower kokeshi line ♡
