Ridiculous mode.

Japanese high school students usually wear the uniform of each school. Girl students wear skirts.
The length is unbelievably short. Even if winter comes, they wear them.
I ask them "Don't you feel cold?"
They answer "Yes, of course I feel chilly! But I don't wear a long skirt, because nobody wears it."
They are not able to act individually because they don't want to stand out from their friends.
Besides that I guess they make a situation in which they are in danger of being molested.
I hope the ridiculous mode will vanish someday.

The easiest a way to make a dish.

Put some of the clay on the table.
Put the clay with your palm to pat it moderately flat.

Put two thin wooden boards of the same thickness on both sides of the clay.
And put rolling pin on that.

Roll the stick on the clay until the clay becomes the same thickness with the wooden boards.

This is the plaster mold.
Put the clay on the mold.
Make the shape along it.
Leave it there for several minutes to dry it moderately.

Several minutes later, turn it over.
Take the mold off the clay.
You can adjust the shape that you want to make.
It's all done. Shall we make it ?

Handmade bags made of leather.

If you buy leather bag at the shop, you would spend much money.
However, if you make it, you can get it what you like at a low price.
I bought the materials of leather at wholesale in Asakusa（浅草　あさくさ）. There are many wholesale of it in there. Asakusa is familiar as sight seeing place in Japan, many foreigners visit there.
And I made these hand stitch. It's a pleasure to think about what I design,
And then I do hand stitch the process bit by bit.
After finished it, there are times it's clumsy to use it, but I enjoy it.
