Vintage kimono teddy Bear made by Haruko


Please look at the picture! What's a cute teddy bear!!! The bear is handmade of Vintage kimonos by Haruko who lives here in Brisbane. She is also a Japanese tea ceremony instructor and enjoying Japanese traditional culture through tea ceremony as her life work.

For Haruko, These kimono teddys are special such as her own babies. When she finished making one teddy, She puts on a name which will be able to show the Vintage kimono background or the bear's outlooking. She is already a pretty well knowledge person about kimono, but just started studying more about kimono for naming.

Her handmade teddys are available at my shop.
She will look after her teddys, if the teddy become sick(injured)too!

Anyway enjoy the Haruko's teddy world!

Hi, I'm also a Japanese living in Brisbane. Just wanted to say that I love these Kimono bears! It is a really good idea to reuse our traditional fabric in a modern way.
