Reviews
“The workshop was wonderful. I had such a good time! I’m a big fan of fabrics, so being in a craftsperson’s studio was amazing. I would do any other workshop organized there!”
“Our instructor Mae explained each step of the process very clearly. The temari turned out beautiful, and we will be happy to display them in our home as a memory of our trip. Mae was warm and friendly, and we enjoyed chatting about our lives and cultures. I highly recommend this activity — a nice immersive break from sightseeing.”
“My partner and I loved this! Great to make something traditional out of recycled kimonos. Mae was very friendly and great to talk to. Best experience we’ve had so far.”
