Winter Niagara

Akoya keshi bracelet. This is a bracelet as you can see.

I bought this keshi at a big jewelry exhibition last year. At that time, I was accompanying my wholesale customer. I was accompanying her to introduce her to various shops.

She found this keshi for sale in a store. The store that sells it was a store I knew well.

She wanted just one strand of Keshi, so I asked the shop about it.
However, the store staff said, “Just one? It’s very difficult to get just one out of the bundle, so please buy the whole bundle.”

I couldn’t show her that I’m familiar with this store, so the store guy listened to my needs.

As a result, her and I decided to buy one bundle in half.

A year and a half has passed since then. I went to her house the other day. “Didn’t you forget your keshi back then? I forgot too. This is the keshi I was entrusted with.

This is how this keshi came to me.

I couldn’t imagine the commercialization of this keshi.

The other day, I asked the office lady at the company I work for about how to use this keshi.

“I want a bracelet. If you make two for me and my sister, I’ll buy it,” she said.

I made a keshi-only bracelet that is not all-knots for the office lady.

I first made an all-knots bracelet for etsy. Because all-knots is my selling point.

It took so long to knots about 86 keshi.

However, I have responded to dozens of times, dozens of times, of redoing all-knots from etsy customers.

It takes an hour to do all-knots for one necklace, but I have made and redone it many times a day.

A normal necklace has about 50 pearls, so the number of knots is also about 50. However, this keshi bracelet has about 86 keshis, so the number of knots is also 85.

I carefully made each knots while listening to the radio, listening to music, and drying the laundry on the way. I think it took over 2 hours.

I feel free in my head when I can move my hands like I’m making a bracelet.

I think a lot of people would hate this kind of tedious work. But I like this kind of work.

I have finished the work of making the bracelet, and now I am writing the product description like this. I am quite tired, but I am filled with a sense of accomplishment.

I had a lot of trouble making it, but when I saw the finished product, it turned out to be a very casual bracelet.

I would like to know what you thought of this bracelet.

Winter in Japan is getting deeper, and the climate has become difficult to live without a room heating.

Yesterday and today, I went to the post office to ship the item, and when I passed by the downtown area on the way, I saw many couples happily walking through the downtown area.

In Japanese, “couple” mainly refers to a man and a woman who are dating before marriage.

When I see them, I think, “I want to experience the Christmas spirit with someone who is attractive to me.” At the same time, I also think that walking 200m is enough.

Some of them look happy, but I think they also fight and have hard times.

Pearls don’t complain. Pearls are simply beautiful and attractive to me.

I may be writing something not so good right now. These are all jokes and your role in this part is where you laugh.

What I mean is that in my town, many people are enjoying the Christmas spirit and forgetting football.

It was a particularly cold northerly wind today, and he was trying to close the gap between the couple.

Even on such a cold night, many dogs were taken for a walk by their owners.

The scenery of a dog being taken for a walk is one of the symbols of peace for me.

Well, the theme of the story has also gone somewhere. Merry Christmas everyone.
