This Box's Theme:
Each box has the same projects and tools, but each with its own distinct personality.
Bold Classic Floral Enthusiast pieces of real Japanese printed paper, Nepalese printed paper, and florals. I collect papers with many floral styles, and while Chiyogami and traditional prints from across Asia can be quite bold compared to my current work, it’s hard not to try and collect such gorgeous, delicious to hold paper. The accompanying stylized embroidery scissors are silver with subtle floral embellishments. This theme is very floral forward and quite bold.
Warning and Disclaimer: This box contains sharp materials: pointed awl, embroidery scissors, and a fairly dull needle. Recommended adult supervision and safe storage in the accompanying sheath when not in use.
