There are many things to make, such as small dolls, paper lanterns, rice crackers, and hishimochi.
I was a little worried that 10-year-old girls would be able to make them all by themselves, but regardless of that concern, both of them were very concentrated and worked well.
And it is completed ！
A lovely smile with a cute hina doll in hand. It makes me happy too.

Students and parents sold handmade sweets and various things, and it was lively event.
I also sold decorations and accessories made of clay and Japanese fabric, and to my joy, my handmade works were popular among the children.
Children and their mothers and fathers looked at my handmade goods with great interest. What I prepared for this market such as “Christmas items”, “windmill and tulips” and also Japanstyle items were popular. Many children bought them.
It was a pity that only people from this school could come to this event, but I am happy many people were interested in my goods and I had such a fun day.
I'm preparing to open a stall at my daughter's school Winter Fair next week.
Since it is before Christmas and many kids are coming, I am making Christmas-themed new items.
Tiny Christmas trees and snowmen.
I am making to imagine that it would be nice if the children look at these with their eyes shining and say "It's so tiny! So cute!"
And this time, there are many children of various nationalities, so thinking that it would be nice to have some Dutch style items and I made a windmill and tulips.
The photo frame is the same one for the workshop, but I put smaller windmill and tulips on small cases.
The miniature clay works and other items have mainly been Japanese-style, but I would be happy to expand the range of items and get more people interested.
Why don't you participate in a special Christmas workshop where you can make small Christmas ornaments with clay, and decorate mini-sized wreaths to make a lovely wreath.

Have fun to make a Christmas wreath !
