Description
Create your own chopsticks from natural wood in a relaxing workshop in Sapporo. Choose your wood, shape your chopsticks, and take home a unique souvenir.
Begin by choosing the type of wood you want to use for your chopsticks. Learn about the characteristics of each type of wood, such as color, scent, and texture. Choose from options like cypress, cherry, or walnut.
Next, use a special plane and file to shape your chopsticks. Gradually shave the wood to achieve the ideal thickness and length that fits comfortably in your hand. Finally, sand the chopsticks with sandpaper to create a smooth finish. Once the natural luster of the wood emerges, your chopsticks are complete.
Enjoy the soothing process of crafting your own chopsticks, feeling the natural scent and texture of the wood. This experience is both relaxing and rewarding, allowing you to create a unique souvenir or keepsake from your trip to Sapporo.
