After years of selling just the tutorials, I am finally offering my washi ningyo on Etsy. I will also be listing some of the older dolls that I have been keeping for myself because I am running out of space…and money :SThis is Shintaro, or Shin-chan, as his parents and affectionately call him. He just turned 5 this year. Shin-chan’s mother dressed him up in his best kimono, complete with hakama, haori and a paper fan, in celebration of tango no sekku/ kodomo no hi (Boy’s Day) . Here he is looking smart with his koinobori flying high in the wind. On Etsy now!
Meet Shintaro 新太郎!

So tiny and such great detail while retaining the simplicity of these pieces. Wonderful!
