Available in two styles:
・Hoop earrings
・Clip-on earrings (no piercing needed)

Handmade in the Netherlands 🇳🇱

Swan market in Delft

Thank you so much for stopping by my stall yesterday.
It was such a special moment for me to join my first market in Delft, my favourite city in the Netherlands.

I’m looking forward to seeing you again at the next market!

Mosaic Tile & Mizuhiki Earrings

These earrings combine colorful mosaic tiles with Mizuhiki.

Inspired by the refreshing feeling of summer, I created them to capture the moment when sparkling soda bubbles burst and dance in the sunlight. The vibrant colors and airy curves add a playful touch, making them perfect for bright summer days.

Available soon on Etsy! 🫧

Today, I had the pleasure of hosting a Mizuhiki workshop at this lovely cafe in Leiden.

Everyone was really skillful and created beautiful Ume-musubi (plum knot) charms in their own chosen color combinations. It was wonderful to see each participant’s unique creativity come to life!

During the workshop, we enjoyed a Japanese tea drink and delicious sweets from the cafe, making the experience even more special. It seemed that everyone had a great time, and I certainly enjoyed spending time together.

Thank you everyone who participated, it was very nice to meet you! Also I appreciate @exclusivithee for creating such a welcoming atmosphere!

Yesterday, thank you for coming to @themakermarket in Rotterdam!

Even though the weather wasn’t perfect, I was so happy to meet many people who visited my stand 💓

I also recently noticed that my products can easily blow away in strong wind because they are very lightweight (since they are made of paper, which is also part of the charm of my accessories).

So, I’d like to improve my display to make it more stable and attractive!

Let’s see how it evolves next time 🥰
I’d love to keep updating and improving my display little by little!

＃４

流れのままに（go with the flow）

すべてをコントロールするのではなく、変化や偶然を受け入れながら流れに身を委ねる、という意味を込めています。

この作品は、“変化し続ける流れそのもの” の美しさを表現しています。

Rather than trying to control everything, this piece embraces the idea of surrendering to the flow while accepting change and unexpected moments.

It expresses the beauty of the flow itself, constantly shifting, evolving, and transforming.

Size: 38 × 38 cm

I received these beautiful photos and kind words from a customer who found this mizuhiki hair accessory at the Hanami Festival.

Captured beneath magnolia blossoms, the piece feels quietly at home in nature — exactly how I imagine it.

“I purchased this beautiful mizuhiki hair accessory at the Hanami festival. The vivid colours and the intricate patterns stirred something in me. Wearing it feels like carrying a small piece of the changing seasons with me. Thank you, Chamee, for creating such a meaningful piece.”

Knowing my work can become part of someone’s personal seasons means more than I can say.

Thank you 🤍
