Come to Kanazawa! Whether it's sunny or rainy, wear a kimono and have fun! Even in Kanazawa, a city that looks good in kimonos, it would be a waste to just wear a kimono and go sightseeing! Since it's a rare opportunity, why not try to experience a little bit of Kanazawa's traditional culture and have an experience that can only be had at that time. "Even if you forget your lunch, don't forget your umbrella!" Kanazawa has a lot of rain, so you're worried about whether you can take a leisurely stroll in a kimono... If you try making kimono scrap art, you don't have to worry about that at all! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------＜What is kimono scrap art making?＞This is an experience where you carefully unravel kimonos that can no longer be worn due to holes caused by burning or stains that won't come off, and use small pieces of kimono scraps to paste them onto stencils to create a one-of-a-kind art piece. We have a variety of stencils unique to Kanazawa, such as the Tsuzumimon Gate at Kanazawa Station, the Kotoji lantern at Kenrokuen, and Kanazawa Castle, so please choose your favorite one! There are also easy stencils such as dinosaurs and flowers for children. Anyone can easily get started. It's interesting that even with the same pattern, the kimono scraps used can make a variety of different works! You can take the finished work home with you in a frame on the spot! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------<Plan Contents> ① First, you will dress in a kimono. Choose your favorite kimono from the variety of kimonos available. Leave the dressing to us! (Hair set is an additional ￥2,200) ② After dressing, you will create a one-of-a-kind kimono scrap art. Choose your favorite pattern, cut the scraps with scissors and paste them with glue. There is no answer to art! Some people create bold works, others delicate ones! You can experience the experience while chatting with friendly staff in a homely atmosphere, giving advice on recommended color combinations! Since it is an experience while wearing a kimono, it may be a little difficult to work, but let's have fun! ③ Decide the frame color ④ Choose the frame color and put the work in You can frame the finished work on the spot and take it home.
