About the Maker

Hi, I’m Ayu, the maker behind Ohanacrats.

I create handmade bags and accessories using repurposed vintage kimono fabrics sourced from Japan. Each kimono is carefully taken apart by hand, cleaned, pressed, and transformed into something new.

I love giving these beautiful textiles a second life while creating practical pieces that can be used every day.

Because the fabrics are vintage, every item is unique and carries its own story.
