The Birth of Barano Atelier

Barano Atelier was born from a deep passion for handmade crafts, fantasy-inspired designs, and creative self-expression. My journey began in 2014, when I first fell in love with resin and clay jewelry making as a student. What started as a hobby quickly turned into an obsession, and I found joy in creating unique pieces inspired by my favorite fantasy worlds.

In 2018, I stepped into the world of sewing while working at a sewing-related company, where I honed my skills and developed a deep appreciation for fabric arts. Sewing soon became my second biggest passion, allowing me to experiment with textures, patterns, and intricate details that complemented my handmade jewelry. Now, after 10 years of crafting, I’ve embraced an exciting new hobby—machine embroidery.

This latest venture lets me combine my love for design and detail in fresh, creative ways, adding beautifully stitched embellishments to my ever-growing collection of handmade gifts and journaling items. At Barano Atelier, every piece is thoughtfully crafted with care, blending vintage aesthetics with fantasy-inspired charm. Whether you’re searching for a unique handmade gift or a special journaling treasure, you’ll find a touch of magic in everything here.

Thank you for being part of this creative journey – I can’t wait to share more handmade creations with you!

Bara… what? What is that?

You might be wondering how I came up with the name “Barano Atelier” and why. Well, it turns out that I actually didn’t! It was my husband. He always loved the word “atelier”, since it sounds very artsy and also is being used in many works of fiction. Many small businesses like to use this word. But why “Barano”? It is a wordplay – it is part of my last name, but can also mean “rose field” in Japanese. As my husband and I have both a deep connection to Japan (we actually met there!) and the Japanese language, we always had the idea to include it somewhere in some way in the business.
