VIRTUAL CRAFT HAPPY HOUR SEKKAZOME - ...Description
Learn to make distinctive Japanese decorative papers to use in your books, seasonal cards and decorations, or as unique artworks in and of themselves. In this hands-on workshop, we will learn about sekkazome, a dying method to make bright, kaleidoscopic patterns. Also known as orizomegami, this fun and colorful technique can be done at your dining table with a minimum of materials and equipment. Buy two tickets or more, and we will throw in a bottle of wine for local participants! You will receive a Zoom link to participate.
