When I started, I was making the shirts, jackets, skirts, kid's dress, and origami objects with Vintage kimono and selling at the Southbank weekend market, Brisbane.
The concept of all works was for me and my daughter originally.
As same as you, I started upcycling naturally in my family. Using my family's unused kimono and upcycled new clothing for my family.
This year, I will be back to "the starting point" which I will focus on upcycling the kimonos.
It will be not only handbags, I will also start....(when Sample is ready, I will update)
But it should be the practical products.
The following are my favourite sites about "upcycling"
