Meet Shintaro 新太郎!

| 3 Comments

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!
