Unfolding the secrets of Furoshiki, Mizuhiki, and Tsutsumi. A square cloth, strands of colorful paper cords, and layers of beautiful papers. You will discover the unbelievably easy and clever techniques to make your everyday living a little more unique. A few folds and a square knot are all you need to master the secrets of Furoshiki wrapping, the original eco-friendly carrying cloth from Japan. Grocery bags, 3 step gift wrap, chic purses, carry bags for wine and water bottles, a handy belt loop pouch, a tissue box cover, a melon bag (yes, you may need to carry a melon one day) and more as time permits. The same square knot lesson moves to Mizuhiki paper cords. You'll never go back to ribbon for your gifts again! Finally, use your folding skills and gorgeous papers to wrap gifts with a flair befitting an origami enthusiast. Workshop, with hands-on participation by the students.
