Aside from Etsy and eBay, what are good sites to find nice (at least somewhat authentic) kanzashi?:confused:

I have some from this site (http://www1.odn.ne.jp/maya/english/enknshop.htm). Very authentic and priced as such.

What a great website. Have you tried to make it yourself?

I answered the question for myself. I found this great website with links to videos on how to make the flowers. Here is the link.

I've made some before. It's not hard at all. The only tricky part is how to attach them to a stick or comb. :) I used glue gun and that didn't look very good from the back.

Here's a picture of a hairpin I made. I think I should actually wear it sometime. :D
