Product Info
- 〈About the Experience〉 This plan allows you to create an original strap using Oshima Tsumugi silk threads produced in the workshop on the premises. It is very popular as a wonderful souvenir, as you create the strap by inserting a paper twist with your wish written on it into the braided cord! Why not participate in making a strap filled with your precious thoughts? 〈Experience Benefits〉 After the experience, you can stroll through the elegant Japanese garden that shows different expressions throughout the seasons, as well as the Amami-style garden that recreates the primeval forests of Amami Oshima.
- Put your wishes into an original strap
- Kasuri threads are dyed in advance to weave Oshima Tsumugi. In this plan, you can use these kasuri threads to make your very own strap. Choose 4 colors of your favorite kasuri threads, write your wish or message on Japanese paper, twist it into a cord, and weave it using a braiding stand. Since the braiding result changes depending on the color combination chosen from about 20 types of threads and how much force you apply when making it, every strap will be unique!
- A fun moment to think about your wishes
- Our staff will provide gentle and careful support, so anyone can participate with peace of mind. Feel free to join with friends, family, or even by yourself. You can weave words of gratitude for Mother's Day, or couples can exchange straps with messages for each other; there are many purposes and wishes you can put into your creation. It is an experience where you can spend an exciting time.
- Amami no Sato, where time flows just like on Amami Oshima Island
- Tropical plants and vibrant, colorful flowers adorn 'Amami no Sato'. In the garden, which shows different expressions throughout the seasons, you can see scenery that recreates the primeval forests of Amami Oshima. There are plenty of facilities and events where you can feel the essence of Amami, such as a workshop where you can watch the precise and colorful Oshima Tsumugi manufacturing process, and a restaurant where you can enjoy the flavors of Amami. Please enjoy a relaxing day along with your strap-making experience.
