This chopstick-making experience allows you to create your own chopsticks, the ones you use every day for meals, from scratch. You can adjust the length, thickness, and shape to create your own unique pair, with an emphasis on ease of use. This experience is recommended for those new to crafting, as you can enjoy the process of carving and trimming while feeling the texture of the wood and bamboo. Once completed, you can take them home and use them immediately in your daily life. This experience is popular with families, couples, and visitors from overseas.
After this experience, you will be able to take home the chopsticks you have completed and start using them right away. You will be able to adjust the length, thickness, and ease of grip by yourself, resulting in a pair that fits perfectly in your hand, unlike commercially available chopsticks. Every time you use them for a meal, you will be reminded of your experiences and the time you spent making them in Nara, making these chopsticks both practical and memorable. They make a great gift, as well as a great way to keep them for yourself.
The experience lasts about 40 minutes, making it easy to participate in between sightseeing. The process is simple, but because you carve, shape, and finish it yourself, you can still get a sense of satisfaction from having made something, even in a short amount of time. Concentrating and working with your hands is also recommended as a way to change your mood and refresh yourself. Staff will carefully support you so that even first-timers can complete the experience within the allotted time.
This chopstick-making experience can be enjoyed by people of all ages, from small children to adults. The process does not require much strength, and safe tools are used. It is suitable for a wide range of occasions, from parents and children making chopsticks together, to couples and friends. It is an experience that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and is perfect for creating memories.
