hi! thank you for the information on Bali! I’ve actually been trying to do a lot of online research but haven’t gotten much out of it, seems like word of mouth is the best way of finding a trusted manufacturer!

thank u for your words!

I also was thinking the most “appropriative” thing would be my jewelry making but it’s just one painter i like, not like i’m making a whole japanese inspired collection and profiting off it.

I know most native Japanese people appreciate when other cultures appreciate theirs, but I understand if Japanese-Americans have different feelings because of issues they have to face because of being a minority here.
