What is decoden?

Decoden is a Japanese art form that involves decorating everyday items with a thick, whipped cream-like substance and a variety of charms and embellishments.

The craft began to emerge in Japan in the ‘90s, as a form of self-expression within the country's vibrant "kawaii" (cute) culture. Over time, it expanded from phone cases to encompass a wide range of items, including mirrors, hair clips, photo frames, and more.

In its modern form, Decoden is known for its "more is more" aesthetic, featuring a mix of pastel colors, sparkling rhinestones, and adorable charms to create extravagant, eye-catching, and often whimsical designs. Embrace the chaos!
