As summer winds down to a close, so too does the Obon Festival season here in the islands. But before it ends, I want to share this FABULOUS little treat box my sweet and uber talented friend Lorna brought by for me the other day. How CUTE is this!!!!
Lorna designed her adorable box to resemble the "yagura" or tower where the musicians sit and play during bon dances. Notice the Poppystamps party lantern dies she colored to look like the familiar obon chochin? Filled with treats, she created these boxes to share with her friends in her Bon Dance club.
Lorna adorned each of the four sides of her box with a different Sister Stamps image...
Here's Sister Stamps' Yoshi and Kiyomi, dancing their hearts out!
Together with Yoichi on the taiko drum and Yoshimi with her fans....
Inside the box is filled with an assortment of Japanese snacks...YUM!
I think you'll agree that Lorna's treat box is totally AWESOME! Don't know how she comes up with these fabulous ideas, but this girl's creative genius is just out of this world! Thank you, Lorna!!!!
HOLY COW!!! This is beyond words. What an AWESOME creation. Lorna knocked this out of the park. Coloring the chochin is a clever idea. All of the Sister Stamps go so perfectly with the Obon Festival theme. They all look great dancing around the yagura. Oh and those treats.....YUMMY!!!!
ReplyDeleteUnbelievably beautiful and incredibly clever! This a perfect pairing of images and celebration. Thank you for sharing this marvelous paper crafted treat box.

ReplyDeleteOh what a beautiful treat box Lorna made. Wowee she did a fabulous job with all the details, down to the chochin lanterns. Choosing those SS was a nice touch and my favorite part would be all the yummy snacks inside. hahaha! Gorgeous project, what a very talented friend you have.
