Ayumi Nojiri

I make ceramic tableware and flower vases. I like white-color ceramics, so most of my works are coated with a white glaze. More recently, I have created more pieces with pale green patterns on a white background as well as black pieces. Because ceramics can be easily customized by selecting combinations of various clays and glazes, we can generate handmade ceramics based on our inspiration. I also create pieces in a variety of colors and shapes according to my customers’ requests.

Hi! My name is Maiko. 

I am the owner and founder of Malpha Jewelry. My New York City life experiences have empowered and redefined how I view self awareness, self-love, being enough, and its value to genuine beauty. I created my first earring to represent my decision and commitment to love & value myself, in putting my needs first. Valuing self-love has made me a better person to the world. I became a jewelry designer to recreate that feeling of empowerment & beauty in others when they wear Malpha jewelry. My desire is to reach every person who needs a one of a kind positive charm to remind them that they are beautiful & good enough where they are.

Creating by hand using eco-friendly materials, Hooks & Luxe’s accessories are perfect for when you want to add a little dainty sparkle to your daily life. All products are designed and made in Queens, NY by Ryoko Kitazawa, the designer and owner of the brand. After studying at Parsons the New School For Design, she was looking for something that would tap into her creativity and design skills and found that accessories design was exactly what she was looking for. She is originally from Japan and believes that it influences the softness and delicacy in her design, showing up in the pieces. The two different cultures in Japan and in the US have given her a broader perspective, and now she puts her unique sensibilities into handmade accessories.

This turtle is shaped with Japanese letters “かめ” ([ka-meh] meaning turtle) using a word picture design style. Hand-cut from metal sheet, it’s a symbol of long life, wisdom, and health.

The instructor first teaches how to use the tufting equipment, then we start making the rug with the design of your choice. (The design has already been outlined on the primary cloth). You can chose from twelve colors of yarn. After completion, we will apply glue on the back side and finally trim the rug.

About the Instructor

Hello my name is Hitomi and I’m based in Brooklyn, NY, originally from Yokohama, Japan.

Through the creation of beautiful rugs, inspired by both Japanese culture and my own personal life experiences, I’d like to spread the same joy and inspiration that creating these rugs gives me.

I hope these rugs will make your room brighter, give you joy throughout your day, or become a delightful gift for your friends and loved ones.
