Bumps in the mini road...
There are several projects in different stages of completion scattered in my work area and I'm technically stuck in all of them. So instead of continuing to bang my head against the wall, I moved on to stuff that I could work on while sorting out the obstacles.

ReplyDeleteI missed this post and boy , it was made on 25/5?
Your wagashi is indeed as beautiful as everyone says. There must be an art to wagashi arrangement , like the ikebana. Your flowers are so pretty!
I found this image of a really pretty teahouse at http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8c/Chaya_%28teahouse%29_in_Nara_Park.jpg. Will make a great mini project although it may have been done to death :).
