I'm just a little artisan trying to make a living in the wonderful world of arts and crafts ✨ My main techniques are Japanese tsumami zaiku & Chinese chanhua, but I'll basically try anything new I find interesting. mustekukka.carrd.co

I wasn't planning on posting this until next week, but apparently yesterday was Madoka's birthday, so here's my goddess Madoka paper collage 🎀✨️ I actually finished this while ago but I kinda forgot about it 😅

Another commission ✨️ I was asked to make a bracelet to match the chrysanthemum & glass flowers comb 🌸 I haven't done any bracelets before so this was a fun challenge and I'm happy with how it turned out 🌸✨️

Last bows for now 🎀 I might make a few more for fun design market depending on how much space my display will have 👀

Little bunny jumping through a hoop 🐇 This counts as a simple hair stick, but it was different enough from the rest, so it gets it's own post 😅

More simple hair sticks ✨️ I got a flu 😭 good thing I don't have to go to work until next Tuesday, but I was hoping I could have ran some errands on my days off 🫠

Multicoloured flower hair clips ✨️ (or are they Multicoloured, since I tried using just one color gor them 😅) These hair clips are still one of my best sellers at artist alleys, so I keep trying to make some new variations ✨️

I did make a few new bows for tracon 🎀 this time I also grouped a few colors together while taking photos, so I don't have to post them all separately 😅

A custom tree branch hair clip I made a while ago ✨️ I try to, but I don't always remember to take pictures of the commissions I make 🫣

The final hair bow knots ✨️ I've spent most of the day editing photos so I can finally post all the new stuff I've made 😩 Now I gotta start prepping for fun design market 😅

Flower pin sets, you can wear just one or all three (or six or more 🌚💦) I made so many, but I wanted to fill a section of my display with these 😅 I also have (an almost full-time) job now, so I have way less time for crafting and artist alleys 😔

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 07/09/2026
Suede tassel hair sticks ✨️ I'm back from tracon (it was great!) and hair stick were definitely among the more popular items on my table, so I'll definitely be making more in the future ✨️

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
I'm passing time until I need to catch my train to Tampere, so here's more bows in the meantime 🎀✨️ I'll be at tracon's artist alley tomorrow and Sunday, see you there 👀✨️

Flower hair clips, but made with silk ✨️ I'll treat these as an one off for now, when I buy silk next I might make more 👀

Last of the fishing rod hair sticks 🎣 I might make some more in the future, these were fun to do 🐟

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 29/08/2026
Wild idea: I stop making new items for Tracon and instead I'll start photographing and packing everything and I'll be done with prep early

Cotton triple flower hair clips 🌸🌸🌸 I'm currently in progress of making more of these (in new colors) for tracon 👀

Sorry, the hair bows never end 😅🙈

Silk flower hair stick ✨️ This is definitely one of my favourite silk fabrics, the colour gradient is so nice 👀

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 25/08/2026
I decided to remake the flowers on my morning glory combs because they didn't look so good after 3 years of travelling to conventions 😅 the new flowers are made from obi silk and it's actually so good material for this because it holds the shape so well ✨️

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
More fishing rods 🎣 I sorted these by color, so after this there's still the green ones left 🐟

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 21/08/2026
More hair bow knots (there's no end to them 😅) I made so many that I don't need to make any new ones for tracon 😅

The school I studied graphic design in is using ai slop in their marketing 🤢

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
More triple flower hair clips 🌸 These are also all made from silk ✨️ I like silk, because you can usually find fabrics with really nice color gradient and textures✨️ I like cotton too, but they are usually more solid colored or the patterns are so big, they don't really work well with small flowers 🥲

Some simple flower hair sticks ✨️ I figured I'd post all of these at the same time, instead separately 😅

More obi knots 🎀 These will be the last ones I make out of this obi though 🥲 the embroidery is so loosely sew that when I cut through it, it starts to unfurl VERY easily 🙃 these have been secured with glue, so they should be fine (sewing them was a nightmare)

Some more fishing rod hair sticks 🐟 I keep wanting to call them fish sticks 😅

More spiders 🕷 I actually made these the night before desucon 😅

First of the many triple flower hair clips I made for ropecon ✨️ The color scheme for these is 🍡 & 🏳️‍⚧️ inspired ✨️

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 12/08/2026
Some more hair bow knots 🎀 I made one of each color for desucon, but because you have to cut the obi lengthwise, you can actually make 3 knots from one cut ✨️ I figured I'd use the rest and make 2 more of each for ropecon

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 11/08/2026
May I present you the fishing rod hair sticks 🐟✨️ Smack yourself and anyone who comes too close in the face with a tiny fish 🐟 These might be the best thing I've ever made 😅

Last one of the new suncatchers (for now 🌚) The color scheme for this was sort of inspired by sailor moon 🌙✨️

Here's something a little different, hair sticks inspired by the hamaya arrows ✨️ I thought about making these for a while and it was a bit of a trial and error to get the fletching to look nice, but I'm happy with the results ✨️

Kukka @mustekukka.bsky.social · 27/07/2026
Now that ropecon is done (thank you again every one who stopped by I had amazing time 🥺), I can continue posting all the new stuff I've made ✨️ I still haven't posted about a whole bunch of items that were made for desucon and now I also have all the new stuff I made for ropecon on top of that 😅
