Is it sad that I bought a tsuke obi, and now that I'm pulling out to fuss with it, with the intention to wear it tomorrow, I have no idea how to use it?
I get that the long strip goes around my waist and the taiko/bow hooks onto that, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to create the tesaki IN the taiko, because it's not already somehow attached to the inside of the taiko shape. (There is a plain white length, but as it does not match the obi, I don't really know if that's supposed to be the tesaki or not - the rest of the taiko is patterned.
SO CONFUSED RIGHT NOW. Guh.
