As for the kimono:　Kimonos are not worn very often nowadays, but they are worn on special occasions. Unfortunately, many nice kimonos are left in the wardrobe without a chance to be worn. Quality kimonos have nice patterns and feel good to the touch, and we are looking for a good way to make use of them. We can get kimonos from vendors, but we try to get kimonos from the mothers of our friends and acquaintances, because they are more reliable and of better quality.

Note: Kimono patterns vary depending on where the kimono is taken. Therefore, please understand in advance that the pattern will be different from the picture shown on the website.

Also, the number of pieces that can be made from a single kimono is limited, so sales will end when all the pieces are sold out.
