About
I'm Victoria, the owner, designer and maker at Bikudesigns, a vintage kimono accessories and sterling silver jewellery brand in the heart of Shimokitazawa, Tokyo, Japan. From my atelier I run a tiny shop representing a number of Japan-based makers and artists as well as a renting workshop space for other creatives to teach.
My studio is a creative space where I experiment with textile arts such as natural dyeing, botanical printing, sashiko and other crafts such as gel printing and card making.
On this channel I'm bringing crafting experiments, thrifting in Japan and behind the scenes studio life every Wednesday.
Join me for botanical dyeing, sewing projects, paper projects, antique and flea markets, dog walks and find out what life is like for a creative in Japan.
