This floral knitting wasn't as difficult as I'd imagined; I even knitted several in one go. It was a wonderful creative experience that brought me peace of mind，thanks.
Such a fun and relaxing experience. The staff was so nice and helpful. The charms we made are so cute and make such a unique souvenir! We loved this experience so much!
We had a lot of fun picking out yarn colors for the omimori, and crafting them using the loom. Additional fees applies for customization (Pokémon patches), but it’s very worth it. Highly recommended to all!
Loved making my own color amulet!!! Very nice clean place with great teachers! Go if you can! Worth your money!!!!
It was a really fun experience! The staff were friendly and genuinely wanted to help. Will definitely come back!
I had an amazing time!! The staff were wonderful and the workshop was easy to follow! i also made a friend with someone else taking the class.
one of the best experiences on our Japan trip. it was a very intimate and supportive experience. I felt like I traveled back to the past weaving my omamori.
It was a very nice experience. Clean facilities, nice quality for equipment. The stairs going up to the room are steep!
great workshop, with a very helpfull team. the staff take there time to explain everything and answer questions. just a headsup for the people who use a wheelchair it is on the second floor and the stairs are pretty steap
My first time experiencing weaving my own Omamori charm. It was simple but meaningful. I could choose different colored threads and blessings. Satisfied!
