Temari balls

I have been obsessed with making these Temari balls since I picked up the book by Barbara Seuss "Japanese Temari: A Colorful Spin on an Ancient Craft" at the library. So day I am sharing some of the results.

Beautifully done! This looks quite detailed -- I've never heard of Temari, but it looks like these balls could take some time to make.

Thank you. They take about a day to make. After making one I had to make most of the ones in the book I had checked out of the library.
