9th of this month, I went to see Handmade Market to the department store held at the next city. "森のバスケット" means "basket at forest".
Lots of varieties of Handcrafts were being sold and made me surprised and happy to have a chance to introduce here through blog. Made me feel hard to avoid the temptation to buy many attractive crafts(♡˘◡˘♡) Sorry for too many pictures of the Handcrafts.
*Japanese Style Mortar and other earthenware*
First picture includes Japanese style mortar which is the
fundamental kitchen tool. The inside of the "suribachi" is comed
to create spirals of fine, jagged grooves that effectively grind and mash
ingredients like sesame seeds.
*Preserved Flower*
I always love to see beautiful preserved flower. But how fantastic to be able to keep beautiful flower inside the bottle with the Herbarium. I couldn't help buying a bit small sized one p;-)
*Loved these gorgeous bags made of "paper"*
 |
| * Potted Flowers* |
In Japanese "Matokaria", funny that English name is "Feverfew".
＊Varieties of Wood works*

| My husband loves Dragonfly, I bought one for him and took a picture outside of my house. |
*Female and Male with Back-Shot*
Recently, I found the back-shot of "Brambling "I haven't posted.
When I put these pictures side by side, I found them attractive.
I AM really tied up now; Hope to see you soon and have a great new week!!!

Hi, Orchid...I haven't been over for awhile. Bloggland is getting so big, sometimes I get lost and lose contact with some of my favorite blogs.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you enjoyed this craft fair...I love going to them, too.
Thanks for sharing all the good photos...xo
Oh so nice indeed, I liked all the photos here
ReplyDeleteDear Miyako,
ReplyDeleteYou show such a fun selection of handmade items! Handmade ceramic is everyday joy, and the glass bottles are decorative indeed. The dragonfly you bought pleases my eye as well - simple and elegant. Wishing you a pleasant new week.
What a lovely exhibition of handicrafts. I enjoyed your photos a lot! The kitty-shaped mortar draw my attention of course :-) So adorable! It would be difficult not to get one or two of those beautiful preserved flowers :-) And I love the dragonflies you got for your husband!
ReplyDeletePhotos of back side of brambling are so cute! I hope you have a wonderful new week, Miyako san xoxo
Miyako - this is the type of market that I truly enjoy. So much variety, and an opportunity to meet the people who make these crafts. Like you, I would have found it difficult to resist buying everything! The photos of the Brambling from the back are very beautiful - the pattern of the feathers is so intricate. Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday, and have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteMiyako, Love the dragonflies! We need to support our artisans of handmade things. It looks like it was a great market. Have a great week. Sylvia D.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your creative mosaics!
ReplyDeleteSeveral stores in our town sell art and handcrafts. Christmas is the big time for craft sales at churches and community halls. - Margy
ReplyDeleteCraft fairs are always fun - here you show a high level of skill! Love the stone ware and handbags would be very tempting to buy for me too (I bought a hat in southern California, and then I discovered it was from paper - never expected it, because it felt so sturdy!) Beautiful color in the front as well as back, of the bramblings! These were awesome to share with All Seasons - many, many thanks, Miyako:)

ReplyDeleteI love all things handmade! The baskets really catch my eye and the beautiful things made of wood! Love your pretty bird...front and back! Enjoy your week sweet friend! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteMiyako, I also enjoy craft markets. This one looks like it has some high quality items. I especially like those paper baskets. Thank you for linking up today and have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteSo many lovely handicrafts. It would be difficult to choose one item to buy. I love the pottery, but the paper bags and wooden items would also be useful and decorative things for the home. I like your dragonfly ornament. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteHello, Miyao! The handmade items are all so pretty. I love the flowers in the bottles, the paper bags, the wood carvings are beautiful. Pretty captures of your Brambling. They are lovely birds. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe Brambling is a lovely bird. Your pictures of it are great.
