- Omedeto!!!. I am facinated by how the steps of furoshiki wrapping...I love doing it. how I wish you could have a printed step by step instruction/direction not only thru video. I love Japanese culture/arts and crafts. I've been there for a couple of times as my sister is married to a japanese national... Given a chance I will try to visit sendaishi, yamagata and kuremishi. Domo Arigato!.

- I really enjoyed this. I am really anxious to try this style wrapping although I know I will have to watch your video a few more times. The only problem is the package looks too pretty for the recipient to rip open!
