Question: Does anyone know how to remove cigarette smell on Japanese Geisha Dolls?

Silk kimono is very sensitive..Help! They're antiques too.

Butterfly Kimono Pattern

Question: What hair ornament would go with a purple, butterfly patterned kimono ?

Answer: It helps to know the kind of kimono in question (if you don't know what kind yourself you could post a link to a picture) because, as with everything else connected to kimono, the kind of hair ornament that is appropriate depends almost entirely on the formality of the kimono. Flowers and combs are usually safe choices -- especially combs. Avoid chopsticks like the plague. Nobody actually wears chopsticks with kimono and it's actually pretty offensive.
