Shimenawa Wreath Workshop
Date: Sunday, December 8th
Times: 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM & 4:30 PM – 6:30 PM
Location: Jewell House
Seats: Limited to 6 total (across both sessions)
Cost: $100 per person (includes all materials)
Join us to create a beautiful Shimenawa wreath, a traditional Japanese decoration used to welcome good fortune and prosperity for the New Year. Shimenawa, crafted from sacred straw rope, symbolizes purification and protection, and is commonly displayed at home entrances.
In this hands-on workshop, we’ll guide you in making a custom Shimenawa wreath adorned with preserved and dried flowers, which, with proper care, will last well beyond the holiday season. You can create a traditional look or customize the colors to match your home’s decor. After the New Year, you can remove the Shimenawa base and repurpose the arrangement for year-round decor. Shimenawa and Mizuhiki cords are specially imported from Japan, ensuring an authentic experience.
The Shimenawa wreath itself will measure approximately 9 inches in diameter, but the overall size will be larger once you add your floral arrangement, which will vary based on your design.
Please note that example photos are provided for inspiration; your finished wreath will be uniquely yours and may vary based on your chosen colors and arrangements.
All materials are provided, and you’ll take home your handcrafted wreath at the end of the session.
Reserve your spot soon—space is limited to 7 participants in total!
新年に幸運と繁栄を呼び込む日本の伝統的な飾りであるしめ縄リースを一緒に作りませんか？しめ縄は神聖な藁で編まれ、浄化や守護の象徴として、主に家の玄関に飾られます。
このワークショップでは、長持ちするプリザーブドやドライフラワーを使用し、オリジナルのしめ縄リースを制作します。伝統的な色合いで仕上げたり、ご自宅のインテリアに合わせてお好きな色でアレンジすることも可能です。適切にお手入れいただくと、毎年美しく飾っていただけます。また、新年が終わった後は、しめ縄部分を取り外し、花のアレンジメントとして一年中お楽しみいただくこともできます。
しめ縄と水引は日本から特別に取り寄せたもので、全ての材料が料金に含まれており、完成したリースはお持ち帰りいただけます。
しめ縄リースのサイズは直径約9インチですが、花のアレンジメントを加えることでさらに大きくなり、デザインによって異なる仕上がりになります。
