The "HABUTAE" manufacturing process involves "dying" the fabric with vivid shades for the Shichigosan ("seven-five-three" festival) and more subtle hues for adults. In the next step, "Hake" brushes are used to apply a glue-water mixture to the dried material, a process called "Norihiki," which prepares the fabric for kanzashi making. It takes around 12 hours to dry and must be done in optimal weather conditions to prevent sun damage. Once the fabric is dried and folded, it is cut into small squares and folded using a tweezer in a process called "Tsumami." The finished folded pieces are then carefully placed onto a wooden board and arranged into flowers, leaves, and butterflies, a process known as "Fuku." This stage
