I went with a friend! The brief explanation of Orinami's history, choosing the thread color, and the weaving process were all incredibly therapeutic. (If you go in the summer, the air conditioning is wonderfully cool, making it perfect for a relaxing break after exploring Asakusa.) The creation process took about 40 minutes in total, and being able to choose a desired phrase and write a message on the paper inside made it a meaningful experience. Since I have a cat, I chose a thread color that matched my cat's fur and selected a phrase that said 'Pet's Health' to complete it.🧡 The staff who guided us were also incredibly kind and even took photos for us, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
this lil workshop is adorable! they gave me a brief history of cotton in Japan, were super helpful and friendly with everything! they even offered to take some photos and did some videos for me to show people back home!! 100% do not miss this place!! I would recommend this again! so lucky I stumbled onto their collab TikTok video! instructor: so kind! very helpful! there was one for both English and Japanese! both were amazing! wish I remember their names!!!
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!
A very peaceful and memorable experience! I really enjoyed the process and the staff was super helpful and nice. The final results turned out very nice
Very good workshop! Teachers were very knowledgeable and helpful and made it easy to understand what to do. It was a great experience and a fun way to spend the morning.
this was an amazingly fun, educational, and relaxing. having spent several previous days doing back to back activities, this was a great way to unwind and learn more about Japan’s taliman culture. great recommendation!!!
Such a fun experience! It was so interesting to learn some history as well as trying out the loom. The charm I made was beautiful and so special. My guide was kind and took the time to walk me through every step of the process.
Had a wonderful and wholesome experience at this omamori workshop. The workshop is very beautiful, neat and spacious. The instructor was very attentive and helpful, and we communicated well enough in English. I learned a few things and the history behind omamori making. They played relaxing instrumental version of Ghibli songs that day, which was great. ^^ I went by myself and was one the of two guests who attended the actual omamori crafting that time of the day. The other attendee was a local Japanese who brought their friend and child for company. I highly recommend this omamori workshop if you're looking for a place to unwind and escape the busy and bustling areas.
It was a really fun experience! The staff were friendly and genuinely wanted to help. Will definitely come back!
My friend and I had a cozy time at Orinami, they were very attentive and good at explaining. They gave us a great start for our trip! Be thou, the Entrance can be a little tricky.
