Momma always told us not to play with our food. But she never said anything about wearing them.
Japanese restaurants have a knack for drawing customers in – partly thanks to their displays of fake food replicas lining their windows and entrances.
It all adds to the quirky charm of Japanese food outlets, if not to attract impressionable folk looking for a Japanese food craving fix.
And now, Japanese plastic food manufacturer Hatanaka is making its way into the fashion business (and our hearts), transforming their food samples into artistic jewellery and accessories.
It’s a dream come true for the fashionable foodie; Hatanaka now boasts a line of mouthwatering necklaces, earrings and belts, which include an irresistible soba noodle necklace, pancake earrings and a bacon belt.
Thankfully, they’ve kept their overseas customers in mind, providing a page with ordering instructions in English.
Check out the rest of their unique creations on their website.
