Kusudama 'Mitsuya Kiriko'

The name is actually just a direct reading from the book. It's called 三ツ矢切子. I don't actually know what it means, so I just took the Romaji reading of it. XD

I bought a book from the famed kusudama artist Tomoko Fuse, simply called "Kusudama Origami - Hanakiriko" (花切子 on the book, Romaji again) and this is one of the first models in it. It also convinced me to finally use my pattern chiyogami paper stash, as I never ever use it. XD
My own touches to the model were the beads and the Yoshizawa v2 butterflies that hang below it.
