    THAI SILK AND TIE DYE タイシルクと絞り。

    Up until now, I would say that Thai Silk clothes are still worn in limited group of Thais. Probably because the good quality Thai silk one tends to be a lot more expensive than fast fashion clothing, but if you once ever wear real Thai silk, you will understand it worths the price. 現在のタイにタイシルクが着ている人は少ない。普通の衣服と比べると、高質のタイシルクはすごく高いのです。しかし、一回着てみると、それが高い値段に見合うことがわかるでしょう。 We got this beautiful tie dyed silk piece from one silk maker whom we have known long ago. Each piece is very l

    NOT A MAD HATTER, BUT A BERET LOVER ベレー大好きだから。

    As I wrote in the title, it has all started from my love of having fancy things on my head.... ok, this sounds a bit strange but it was something like that. Probably when I was younger, my hair was always in mess, so I had to cover it up with something, or I just thought I look prettier with it...haha I tend to love beret than other items just because here in Bangkok is a super warm, and humid city, it is difficult to me to put on hat all day, but beret can be easily fold int

    JAPANESE DARUMA AND THAI FABRICS. ダルマとタイの織り物

    This time Japanese Daruma doll takes the lead role of our design. Taken from the Japanese craft and illustration books, we used applique technique recreating the drawing. Different materials were gathered, also Thai batik fabric, put together to make our unique Daruma doll ornaments. Although we used both Thai traditional fabric combined with Japanese traditional design, we think the outcome is very unique and interesting. How do you think? 今回だるま人形は私たちのデザインの主人公になりました。日本の技術と絵本

    HANDMADE IS HAPPINESS ハンドメイドは幸せです。

    One day when I was sitting and sewing this beret at a cafe, there was a lady, I would guess she might be old enough to be my mother, came and said to me " This beret is lovely, you do it as your hobby or you sell it too?" , " I do sell it too" I replied. " I think my mom would look good on this beret, you see, my mom she always has to be on bed, not that she would go out anyway, but I believe when all relatives come and visit her, she would look so delighted if she has this b

    IT IS A RED AND GREEN THAI SILK DRESS 赤と緑タイシルク

    We are still in the atmosphere of Christmas....at least for me ....is it only me? Anyway, sharing these photos is about the good time. This dress is made from Thai Silk. The using of Japanese Shibori  technique makes the silk looks extraordinary. To us, Thai Silk doesn't have to always be so formal, but the glamorous look is one thing you can't take away from it. #THAI #ThaiSilk #Bangkok #Thailand #Dress #Handmade #Shibori #tiedye #絞り #バンコク #ハンドメイド #タイ #シルク #タイシルク

    Christmas is just behind the corner and I believe many parties will be happened during a day or two, same as mine.

    FLOWER IS THE MEANING OF MY NAME 私の名前は花という意味です

    Yesterday was my birthday. As tradition, we usually present our parents flower garlands to pay our respect. Nowadays, flower garlands are sold everywhere. But this time I decided to do my own, as the title written, my name "Sitee" has the meaning of flower garland, so I think it would be nice to experience some traditional thing in my style. #flowers #garland #tradition #Thai #culture #birthday #craft #handmade

    SERIOUSLY LEMON YELLOW HANDWEAVED COTTON すごく黄色いコットン

    Using Thai fabric on works has always been challenging for us. lately, Thai silk and Thai cotton are being used by many Thai designers who want to show their ideas, so the question is how to be different? Being your true self is one big answer, but how to translate that into designs? タイの布を使うことはいつも私にとって挑戦になります。最近は、多くのタイのデザイナーたちにタイシルクとタイの木綿を使います。その中で何か私がオリジナルなものを作るのは難しいでしょうか。ここでは自分らしさを失わないことが大事だと思いますが、その自分らしさをデザインにどのように活かしたらいいでしょうか。 This lemon yellow hand-weaved cotton from the

    HANDMADE IS THAT SPECIAL GIFT ハンドメイドのことはスペシャル物です。

    Last month I got one assignment from a customer (and a good friend) to design a decoration from demin jacket for one Thai actress who also happen to be my friend named Rodmay ( ok, we are all friends in this world haha). 先月は友達に私のもう一人の友達、タイ女優のロドメイさんのためにデニムジャケットを飾ることが注文されました。飾りのデザインは自由でした。知っている限り、私の友達のロドメイさん冷たい色が好きで、彼女は可愛らしくから、私は花のレースを使い決めましたが、ホワイトとグレイのモノトーン色を選びました。ジャケットの背中側にはステッチ技法で彼女の名前の最初の文字である「R」を刺繍しました。 The theme was no theme, so it is all up to me. I know Rodmay likes coo

    THE SHADE OF PINK AND BLUE ピンクとブルー

    I just finished my new work. I felt like doing something feel light and sweet, so I came up with this. Like flowers that fall and float from tree by the cool breeze in Spring....wait, I know it is Autumn now, but in Thailand is all year Summer, so I have a right to imagine. lol Since I use see-through fabric, I use organzas silk for decorating as well, to make more layers. Using little flower laces gives much more delicate look than big one. Finished! Let's celebrate with hot

    TSUGARU KITE : THE HANDMADE KITE OF AOMORI 青森の凧:津軽凧

    " It is said that Tsugaru kites, a folkcraft of Aomori Prefecture, were first made in the 17th century by poor low-ranking members of the samurai class. Japanese kites generally have a bamboo frame, but as bamboo is difficult to grow in the Tsugaru district because of the severe cold, lightweight and supple cypress cut into thin strips is used instead.
