Visited today Kiteya, a Japanese store which had offered a groupon (or a bloomspot coupon), in Soho (Broom Street). Charming shop, where I got hand made Japanese origami paper, a book on how to use textiles to wrap Japanese style, and a little black silk zipped pouch for lipstick and sundries. Owners really charming too, they gave me a little gift for having visited! (Japanese incense wrapped in silk). They have a nice selection of Japanese hand made paper.
Elle*, who is almost ready to start the risky project.

Thank you, Diva, for posting the link! I hate to say I don't know how to post links! However, my project is coming along, I have almost all the materials, and although the technique will be risky for me, I kept the previous aborted theme of "wet dreams"! My visit to Kiteya inspired some of the steps I will take! Enough said!

So suddenly I was inspired and made the prototype for my "Risk", and liked it, and now I have made three of them! Coming along nicely, with actually two new (for me) techniques! I will be early!

I'm still working on a good system for that. Right now, I have some in the original mailers/packaging and tucked away in my footlocker or a plastic tub. Some are semi-loose in the plastic boxes and tubs and some are just kinda sitting around, waiting for me to figure out what the Hell to do with them.
There are a few pieces that I would like to showcase and plan on either putting them in cases and hanging the decorative cases and/or using open boxes and blocks mounted on the wall and tucking the project inside. |

I am just keeping them in a so unglamorous, large, mailing box. It works for now.
