Washi (Japanese Paper) Craft Workshop by Yukiko Chikamura

Yukiko Chikamura is going to show you beautiful items you can create with just milk cartons and pretty Washi paper. During the workshop we will be making Hashi Oki (Chopstick rests). It will be a perfect gift if you make a set of 5 or 6, or just make 2, the one for yourself and the other for your significant other.

Please bring a pencil, ball-point pen, ruler (30 cm), and scissors.

Yukiko is originally from Nagoya, Japan, and she moved to Seattle 18 years ago. She is probably better known as a Japanese cooking teacher as she has taught at Nikkei Horizon for the last 15 years. Even though her formal education was in nutrition and cooking, she has always had an interest in art and crafts. Because of her love of crafts, she began using fabric from old Japanese kimonos to make cushions, wall hangings, and other items, and also using milk cartons and Japanese Washi paper to produce various gift items which she sells at local craft shows such as Ayamekai and Aki Matsuri.
