Plan description

Experience Japanese tradition and create your own creations! Mini origami lamps are made by folding several sheets of handmade Japanese paper into a bellows shape and gluing them together. When a small lamp is inserted into the bellows-shaped washi paper, it emits a gentle and warm light. When the bellows is closed, it resembles a closed book, and the obi is decorated with a mizuhiki knot. You will create a one-of-a-kind origami lamp piece in the world. Lastly, we will serve Japanese sweets along with "Japanese paper tea" that is not available anywhere else! Mizuhiki is a traditional paper string made of twisted Japanese paper wrapped in nylon or film. Did you know that each knot has a meaning? Once you know the meaning of the knot, it's the perfect gift. Washi paper is lightweight and durable, making it ideal for artwork and interior decoration. Learn about traditional Japanese crafts and their techniques, and create your own original work.

Made with handmade washi paper made from scratch using traditional methods.

You can make lamps using handmade washi paper made entirely by hand using mainly raw materials from Tokyo. Fold it like origami and put it together to make a lamp. You can choose the Japanese paper for the cover from a variety of patterns.

You can use traditional paper string to make a knotted decoration on the belt that binds the lamp.

Mizuhiki is a traditional Japanese paper string. It is a paper core wrapped with nylon or film. There are various types and meanings of knots, and in this workshop we will be tying the basic ``Awaji knot''.

You can take a picture with the signboard cat

The signboard cat of our shop is a calico cat, which is very docile and accustomed to people. It depends on her condition, but maybe we can play together.
