    After choosing the item and crest, you can then choose your favorite color and begin the experience. First, the craftsman will demonstrate the process. He places a stencil on the area where you want the crest to be placed, and then applies the dye using a special tool. You will be carefully taught each step of the process. At first glance, it may seem like a simple process, but it seems like it requires some skill, such as slightly adjusting the angle of your hands.

    Remembering the tips the craftsman taught me, I carefully applied the crest. It's okay if I can't do it in one go! With the help of the craftsman, I layer it several times if there isn't enough color. I slowly peel back the stencil and...the crest is clearly visible. After removing the stencil, let it dry thoroughly.
