Helping you make Japanese Temari Balls

Owner Barb Seuss offers lots of free information and design ideas, and even a craft bazaar where you can buy temari and related items. Well worth a visit - she makes it seem easy to do!

This is a wonderful hands-on workshop you can do in an afternoon in Kyoto. You choose a blank and a pattern, apply the hot wax with a brush, and then the Sensei helps you dip dye it in indigo. It's an affordable, unique learning experience, and the souvenier can't be beat! A delightful way to spend a rainy afternoon in Kyoto! Click on the logo to visit their website.
