Handmade Wood Fired Japanese Fuurin Wind Chime with Beautiful Hand Painted Paper Tanzaku

This wind chime was formed on a pottery wheel with stoneware clay, left unglazed, and fired in a wood burning kiln to cone 10. The porcelain bead inside that makes noise was hand formed. The paper strip, or tanzaku, was hand cut and hand painted with watercolor. This chime makes a nice sound when the wind blows.

This wind chime is not intended for outdoor use because of the paper tanzaku, but the stoneware pieces are very durable.

The body of the windchime is 2.75" tall and 2.75" wide. The tanzaku is 6.5" long and 2" wide.

This wind chime is not intended for outdoor use because of the paper tanzaku, but the porcelain pieces are very durable.

The body of the wind chime is 3.25" tall and 3.75" wide. The tanzaku is 7" long and 2" wide.

Hand-Dyed Large Beige Tall Tabi Socks

Wear your thong sandals even in cool weather with these carefully Hand-Dyed Tall TABI Socks.

Starting with Tall White Tabi Socks, I dye them with Tintex. After dyeing I put them through 2 wash cycles to make sure they are colour fast. They are hung to dry and then ironed.

The colour is a light beige, very natural looking.

80%cotton/20%nylon Hand-Dyed

Large size fits from woman's shoe size 8 to 11, men's shoe size 6.5 to 9. They reach about mid-calf height.

Hand Dyed Red Tall Tabi Socks in Large Size

Walk like a colourful Ninja in these Vibrant Red Sports-Weight Tabi Socks!
Tabi Socks are so Sensible and also so much Fun! You can wear them with your Flip Flops or thong sandals all year long.

Large size fits from about woman's shoe size 8 to 12 or man's 7 to 11. The Tall Tabi Socks reach mid calf length and feature comfortable ribbing to assure a no-slip fit.

Large White Tall Tabi Socks which I sell on the cooleastmarket.com website are rinsed, then dyed Red using Tintex or ProCion MX Dye. After going through 2 cold water washing cycles, they are colour-fast.

80% cotton/20% nylon Hand-Dyed

Hand-Dyed Jikatabi Boots and Matching Tall Tabi Socks

Enhance your Anime/Manga/Cosplay costume with hand-dyed Jikatabi/Tabi Boots.
Unique Hand-Dyed Tabi Boots in a great variety of colours, sized from 23 cm to 30 cm.

I was selling White and Black Jikatabi on my website cooleastmarket.com for a few years and people keep asking for other colours. I'm not very crafty but when someone suggested I try dyeing them, I thought, "I can do that." If you want to try it yourself here is a link to the instructions:
http://cooleastmarket.com/blogs/news/6747252-dyeing-jikatabi-how-to

The White Jikatabi Boots are dyed using consumer dyes. The stitching and sole stay white during the dyeing process giving them a unique look.
Etsy is just for Hand-Dyed items so if you are interested in regular non-hand dyed Jikatabi please visit my main website.
http://cooleastmarket.com/collections/tabi-boots-jikatabi

These Jikatabi are fastened with traditional Japanese metal tabs called Kohase. There are three rows of stitching that allow for custom fitting to your leg.

If your legs are large and you think the boots might not be big enough to go around you can order the extensions which add about 5 cm. to the width.
https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/181037174/hand-dyed-jikatabi-extensions-to-go-with
Order these at the same time and I will dye them when I dye the boots so they will match exactly.

Sizing is VERY IMPORTANT so please follow these instructions for measuring to make sure you are not disappointed with the wrong size.
The Jikatabi are measured in centimetres. There are many conversion charts around, but they are all different. So please measure carefully and don't guess. Then you won't have to exchange.

Stand up and have a friend trace your foot on a piece of paper. Then measure from the back middle of the heel to the tip of the largest toe. That is the length of your foot. For instance, if your feet are 10" long, that converts to about 25.5 cm. You need to ask for size 26 cm. boots. If your feet are a little over 26 cm. you need to take the 27 cm.

A free pair of Tall Tabi Socks in the same colour is included with your Tabi Boots. If possible we send one in the same dye lot, otherwise we send a similar colour or plain white or black.

Wedding Veil Mantilla White

A must have for a bride is a veil, it will create a soft canvas against the dress and frame your face with the beautiful detail that is in this mantilla veil. This mantilla veil was an inspiration after I saw a beautiful bridal dress and thought how much more beautiful it would look with the delicate look and romance of a long veil. I loved this veil so much I made one for myself to keep for my day, see first two pictures and just imagine how you would look with it on.

The veil you will get is white and has beautiful embroidery throughout the veil, it is easy to wear as it is attached to a plastic comb. It is ready to ship!

Length of veil is: 53 inches/134.6cm.

Necklace Gothic and Victorian Collar

This lovely hand crochet collar I got from a family friend that was spring cleaning her area and I found this beautiful collar. This collar is easily worn by just buttoning the button. I have attached a pendant that I came across and thought, how lovely these two items compliment each other. Pendant can be easily removed from the collar and worn only.

Collar unbuttoned and measured straight across is 17 inches/ a little over 43cm

Mickey Baby Beanie, Bib and Booties set

With some black soft flannel and the inspiration of plaid cotton Mickey Mouse fabric I decided to make a pair of baby booties, matching bib and a little mouse hat to compliment it.

Put this soft flannel hat and little booties and that little baby and just sit and smile :o) at how adorable he or she looks.

This would also make a unique gift for that mom to be.

Measurements:
Beanie- measurement taken across brim of beanie, lying flat: 9 3/4 inches/ a little over 24cm

booties would be about a Size 4 (9-12 months) measurement taken from heel to toe: 4 1/4 inches / 10 1/2 cm
