How about an accessory workshop using Japanese paper at a hundred years old Kyoto-style Machiya located to the west of "Sanjusangendo", one of the most popular sightseeing spots in Kyoto?

Origami, Traditional Craft Loved by World

Now let's try making earrings using Yuzen-Japanese paper.
Especially the origami-crane earrings are popular for women customers.
Japanese paper accessories match well with casual clothes, and of course kimono. Let's walk around Kyoto with your original handmade accessories.

Learn Neat Handcraft

The time flies with neat lecture and fun conversations.
Staffs will teach and look after your work carefully to make your accessories beautifully done.
Feel free to ask any questions or advice to make decisions.

Finishing Up

Fix the shape of your origami crane and put on the coating.
Walk around inside the room like a gallery with many antique items while you wait for it to dry.
Choose and attach the metal parts with the special equipment. Once it's done, the workshop is done.
