Laten we een Zabuton maken Probeer katoenen vulling met Futon Craftsman
Beschrijving
We begeleiden u bij het vullen van katoen in uw zabuton (Japans vloerkussen). Dit is een unieke Japanse methode om katoen in de vierkante stof te stoppen. Onze futon-vakman zal je zorgvuldig dat eeuwenoude traditionele geheim op een tatami-mat laten zien en leren. Als er meer tijd is, leren we je niet alleen hoe je het katoen moet vullen, maar ook hoe je de stof aan elkaar moet naaien en kwastjes moet bevestigen. Je kunt je afgewerkte zabuton mee naar huis nemen in een klassieke tas in kimonostijl, gemaakt van overgebleven futonstof! Je kunt je zabuton gebruiken in het vliegtuig op weg naar huis. Je zult ook andere futon-ambachtslieden om je heen zien werken, die een verscheidenheid aan traditionele futons met de hand maken! Deze futons worden op bestelling gemaakt, niet alleen uit Japan, maar van over de hele wereld. Dit is een unieke kans die alleen Futon Tokyo je kan bieden. Wij verheugen ons op uw deelname.

Belangrijke informatie
- Opties voor openbaar vervoer zijn in de buurt aanwezig
- Niet aanbevolen voor reizigers met ruggengraatletsel
- Reizigers moeten ten minste een gemiddelde conditie hebben
- Je werkt in verschillende posities aan tatamimatten. Kom alsjeblieft in een beweegbare broekstijl. Of neem je eigen broek mee.
- Maskers zijn vereist om inademing van katoenvezels te voorkomen.
- Katoenvezels blijven ook aan je haar plakken, dus we raden aan om een pet te dragen als dit een probleem is. Of wikkel een doek of handdoek om je hoofd.
- Pas op dat u niet te dicht bij de vakman komt terwijl deze naalden gebruikt. De naald is een gespecialiseerd hulpmiddel om zabuton te maken, erg dik en gevaarlijk.
- We kunnen de workshop publiceren op onze website en sociale netwerksites. Mogelijk worden ook uw foto's getoond. Als het je niet bevalt, laat het ons dan vooraf weten.

If you only do one class/activity on your trip to Japan, make it this one. I searched high and low for something that wasn't your typical food tour or walking tour (nothing wrong with them; I believe you could just do it yourself XD) and found this zabuton (pillow cushion - for sitting usually, but if you want to sleep on it, no one's stopping you!) making class by Futon Tokyo. It's the only class of its kind on TripAdvisor. Pros: -Amazingly kind and patient teacher and staff. Very knowledgeable and they definitely will make sure you leave with your perfect zabuton! -English speaking staff for those who cannot speak two licks of Japanese like me XD -organic cotton batting??!? So soft sitting on your pillow is like sitting on a cloud -Not difficult to make this pillow. Don't misconstrue my words. You seriously cannot make a zabuton by yourself, only with the help of the teachers. I'm 100% sure it takes a long time before anyone become even decently good at it. But for someone who's making one for the first time, with the teacher guiding you, you will feel that it is doable and fun 😁 -You get to keep it at the end of the day!! Something tangible, something YOU made from your trip in Japan. Put it in your house and admire it and use it bc YOU made it! 🙌 Cons: -None at all!! Take the class already!! If I ever come back to Japan, I will take this class again and bring my family along so everyone will have a zabuton at home and not be jealous 😄
Thank you so much for your heartfelt review. We're truly happy to hear that you enjoyed our workshop! You're right—there really isn't another workshop quite like this one. Thank you for finding us among so many options out there! How have you been enjoying the zabuton you made since then? If you come back to Tokyo, please bring your family or friends along next time—we’d love to welcome you again!!(^^)!
Had a great time making the zabuton. The staff were friendly and supportive. I highly recommend anyone who is interested.
Dear Brent, Thank you so much for joining our zabuton workshop. We truly enjoyed spending time with you! Please come visit us again next time you're in Tokyo!
I liked picking my fabrics. They were very friendly and patient with the instructions. Makes a very nice souvenir. Unique experience.
Thank you for visiting the other day. We are glad you enjoyed your visit us :> How is the comfort of your hand made zabuton cushion? We hope it will be a wonderful memory of your Japan!
Enjoyable experience making a zabuton. Recommend for a way of learning about Japanese traditional crafts and also having something to take home. Reasonable price.
Thank you very much for spending your precious time with us in Japan. I would love to know more about traditional handcrafts in your country. Please come visit us again!
I had a great time there with the friendly staff (including the owner) who accommodated me. I ordered a futon while i was there and the staff made my futon on the spot, right before my eyes! I am amazed by the dedication and the effort the staff put in to ensure each handmade piece is durable, of high quality and comfortable. I was so tempted to buy more stuffs from them, haha For ladies, please wear pants so that it will be more comfortable during the zabuton session
Thank you for visiting the other day. How is the comfort of your futon? And thanks for the suggestion about the pants. Hope to have you back again! Sleep well and have a healthy life!
This was such an amazing experience where we got to spend 1-on-1 time with master craftsmen. We learned how this company is one of few futon makers that still prepares their own cotton. The friendly staff walked us through each step of the way as we made our own zabutons, which we brought home as a unique souvenir and daily reminder of our trip to Japan. Highly recommend booking time with such a wonderful company and their craftsmen when you're in Tokyo.
Thank you very much for your review message! It was our pleasure to experience this workshop with both of you, indeed. It was such a short limited time but you worked so hard and we were also happy to be able to share the Japanese culture with you. We are looking forward to your next visit for the second zabuton, you could be the master then!
This is a fantastic experience for anyone interested in textiles or to better understand the time and effort it takes to make Japanese products so excellent. My sensei was incredibly skilled and the small staff is very welcoming & generous. Understanding Japanese is not necessary as there are translators who are fluent in English if you need help. In the end you walk away with new skills and a beautiful zabuton for a small price. Thank you everyone at Futon Tokyo! Hope to see you again soon!
Hello Jane san! Thank you very much for taking part in the workshop despite the hot whether. We were very inspired by your serious approach to zabuton making. Although it was only for 2 hours, it was a pleasure to work with you in the traditional Japanese zabuton making technique. We are sure that your zabuton will remind you of your wonderful memories of Tokyo. We look forward to seeing you again!
