Tokyo Etsy Craft Party 2015
Had great fun last Friday at the Etsy Craft Party, held in Shibuya Tokyo. Had a go with different crafts like making a rainbow loom band which took the world by storm, a Japanese fabric brooch, and Swedish Traditional Straw Stars.
As an Etsy seller myself at mypaperpigeon etsy store, it was awesome meeting other Etsy sellers in Tokyo in-person and be exposed to different crafts of different genres.
#Craftparty at Shibuya
Loveliest cake for the night just for the Etsy #craftparty event!
Swedish Traditional Straw Stars under guidance from Fabric lover Christina Wemming from Stockholm. They look easy to make but it was quite a challenge for butter fingers of mine!
Japanese Traditional cloth brooch in the making... thats the petals of the sakura flower, nested on a slab of liquid craft glue.
There you go! My Japanese Cloth brooch finished with 3 little tiny pearls to resemble the Sakura cherry blossom. There were lots of little parts to choose from, gold silver wares to pearls to paper marche parts.
Can't wait for the next craftparty by Etsy but meanwhile, shop My Paper Pigeon here!
