Groups welcome! Creating Oda Nobunaga “Washi Korokoro” dolls with guests from Taiwan
━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━
We received a booking from a Taiwanese travel agency as part of their tour itinerary,
choosing the “Mino Washi Craft Experience Shop” as one of the highlights.
After several meetings with the tour coordinator in advance, the long-awaited workshop day finally arrived.
Originally, we had planned to meet the group at the bus parking area, but when we received a call,
the guide had already arrived in front of our shop.
We heard that the guests were happily taking photos along the historic Udatsu-lined streets.
At our shop, even on days when the experience shop is normally closed,
we can open “by reservation only” if there is a group booking.
On this day as well, our staff prepared in time for the group’s arrival and welcomed them right on schedule.
The guests naturally gathered inside the shop,
and once the guide said, “Not everyone is here yet, but please go ahead and start,”
our Mino Washi craft workshop for the group began.
When we started with a greeting of “Good morning” in Japanese,
almost all the guests replied with a cheerful “Good morning!” – which surprised our staff.
When we said, “Your Japanese is very good,”
they laughed and replied, “This is the only phrase we know,” and the workshop began in a very friendly atmosphere.
This time, the group challenged
the “Washi Korokoro Warlord Series – Oda Nobunaga.”
However, Oda Nobunaga was not yet very familiar to many of our Taiwanese guests.
So within what our staff knew, we briefly explained that he was a famous general in the Sengoku (Warring States) period and tried to introduce him in an easy-to-understand way.
The Washi Korokoro kit combines a “kimono” and “helmet” set.
Rather than completely free creation, it is a “follow the sample” type of experience,
making it easy even for first-time visitors and large tour groups.
During the workshop, one older gentleman in the group commented,
“It’s difficult, but fun – and the finished piece is really cute,”
which was wonderful feedback for us.
Guests who worked quickly listened to the explanation and then immediately began adding their own original decorations,
creating their very own version of Nobunaga.
More careful guests studied the sample closely and advanced step by step, taking their time with each stage.
Everyone enjoyed the activity at their own pace, and all the pieces were completed within the time limit.
Row after row of Oda Nobunaga figures lined up on the tables,
and the group photo session was a big success.
After the workshop, the guests purchased very “Japanese” souvenirs such as
mini “god of good fortune” ornaments, komon-pattern tenugui towels, and kaishi paper,
and the atmosphere in the shop remained lively until the very end.
This travel agency plans to continue using our shop throughout this winter season.
As a Japanese cultural experience for group tours,
we will keep working as a team to offer a time that makes guests feel, “I’m so glad we came here,”
for group trips, incentive tours, and educational school trips to Japan.

Our hometown, Mino City – winter-only delights
The Hina Doll Stamp Rally and Mino Washi “Kanzarashi” cold-water bleaching
━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━
Winter in Mino City is a season of crisp, cold air and beautifully clear skies.
The Udatsu-lined historic streets show a quieter, more subdued charm compared to summer or autumn.
What makes this winter townscape suddenly come alive is the event hosted by the Mino City Tourism Association,
“Hina Dolls in Udatsu Townhouses” and the Hina Doll Stamp Rally.
Centering on the Udatsu streets, vintage Hina dolls and Mino Washi Hina dolls are displayed in old townhouses, shops, and under the eaves, filling the town with a festive atmosphere.
The stamp rally begins by getting a stamp sheet at the tourist information center “Banya” (free of charge).
As you collect stamps while shopping or dining at participating stores, once you have five stamps, you can return to Banya and join a prize draw. Turning the capsule machine gives you a chance to win some exciting little prizes♪
Of course, “Mino Washi Craft Experience Shop Ishikawa Paper Goods” is one of the participating stores. Please drop by and get a stamp when you are in the area.
Another star of winter is the scene of “kanzarashi,”
where the raw material for Mino Washi, kozo fiber, is exposed to the icy midwinter river.
The white bark of kozo is soaked in the crystal-clear, cold water of the Itadori River, and over many days, impurities are removed while the fibers are naturally bleached by the sunlight. This is an essential process for producing high-quality washi paper.
In the past, this work could be seen in many places along the Itadori River, but today it is preserved as a once-a-year winter event in which artisans gather together to carry on the tradition.
On days when the temperature is close to freezing, the sight of artisans stepping into the river and carefully handling kozo (paper mulberry) fibers is truly the “origin of winter-time Mino Washi” traditional papermaking in Gifu, Japan.
The paper created from fibers polished by midwinter water and sunlight is characterized by a refreshing whiteness and gentle texture; it is what we call “winter-born Mino Washi = kanzarashi,” a special type of traditional Japanese washi paper from Mino City.
After touring Hina dolls displayed in the historic Udatsu townhouses and enjoying a leisurely walk around town with the stamp rally,
if the timing is right, you can also visit the Itadori River to watch the kanzarashi cold-water bleaching of Mino Washi fibers.
After that, please stop by the “Mino Washi Craft Experience Shop Ishikawa Paper Goods” for a hands-on Japanese cultural experience during your Japan trip.
Inside the shop, you will find Mino Washi Hina doll goods, washi accessories that look great as winter interior décor,
and hands-on workshops where you can make Washi Korokoro Hina dolls and other Mino Washi crafts.
If, when you visit, you tell us, “I came because I read your newsletter!”,
I may end up talking a little too enthusiastically about how wonderful winter in Mino City is (lol).
The quiet stillness of winter, and the festive elegance of the Hina dolls.
And the story of the “winter river” that gives birth to Mino Washi paper.
We would be delighted if you could take your time and savor this winter-only side of Mino City, Gifu, as part of your Japan travel itinerary.

Not only our commercial Washi Korokoro products, but in fact, original one-off pieces are quietly being born every day in our Mino Washi Craft Experience Shop as well^^
We are constantly amazed by the unique creations that spring from children’s free imagination during our hands-on Japanese craft experiences.
Instead of simply copying the samples, many children turn their favorite characters and personal motifs into three-dimensional form—that freedom of expression is exactly what makes Washi Korokoro so appealing.
From now on, we’ll also be introducing these fun and creative works on our blog with photos, so that overseas travel planners and fans of Japanese culture can see what guests actually make♪

Mayu “Mino” Diary – A nostalgic gift for my daughter
━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━
The other day, while I was tidying up the house, I came across something “nostalgic” that made my hands stop moving^^
They were tiny hand-knitted clothes
that I had carefully made, stitch by stitch,
when I was pregnant and thinking, “I want to make something for the baby girl who will be born.”
When I was in elementary school, my mother taught me how to knit.
With crochet, once you learned single crochet and double crochet, you could adapt them to make all kinds of handmade pieces,
and I remember being so absorbed that I made lots of scarves “of a sort” one after another.
At the peak of my obsession,
I made not only stuffed animals but also crocheted “amigurumi” characters and knitted hats,
and I even earned a bit of pocket money by selling them at flea markets and through private sales^^
Then, when I found out I was going to be a mother,
I thought, “This time, I want to knit something for my own child,”
so I knitted a poncho, a coat, and a vest.
However, my daughter was born in March,
just as the weather was about to get warmer and warmer.
Because I had knitted everything in newborn size, she outgrew them in the blink of an eye and there was almost no chance to actually wear them (lol).
So the hand-knitted clothes ended up sleeping in the back of the closet for a very long time.
During this recent clean-up, I was reunited with those tiny hand-knitted pieces for the first time in years.
The feel of the yarn and the late-night hours I had spent knitting while thinking of the baby in my belly all came flooding back at once.
There was no way I could throw them away.
But it also felt like such a waste to just leave them hidden away forever.
That’s when I came up with an idea:
“Why not let my daughter’s current favorite friend wear them?”^^
When I tried the clothes on Cinnamon, the Sanrio character plushie that my daughter hugs tightly every day,
they fit perfectly!
When my daughter came home from school and spotted Cinnamon in her new outfit,
she exclaimed, “Huh? Cinnamon looks even cuter now^^”
and hugged her with a big smile.
Seeing that,
I felt so happy, thinking, “She may not have worn them as a baby, but now those little clothes are wrapping something very precious to her.”
When decluttering, we gradually let go of things we no longer need, things that no longer fit, or things that are broken—but the time, feelings, and love for our family woven into those items are not so easy to discard^^
The knitting my mother taught me has been passed from her hands to mine,
and now it feels as though it is being passed on, in a slightly different form, to my daughter’s favorite stuffed friend.
I hope that many more “memory-filled items” like this will continue to grow alongside my daughter in the years to come^^

我們接到了來自台灣旅行社的預約,將「美濃和紙雜貨體驗店」安排為日本團體旅遊行程中的一站。
在出團前,我們與負責人多次開會討論行程細節,終於迎來體驗當日。
原本預定前往遊覽車停車場迎接,但聯繫後得知,
導遊已經帶隊來到店鋪前,
團員們則正愉快地在「うだつの上がる町並」老街上散步拍照,享受美濃市觀光與街景。
本店即使在體驗店公休日,
只要有團體預約,也可以採用「僅於預約時段營業」的方式靈活接待。
這一天,我們也依照集合時間完成準備,在店內等候大家的到來。
客人們自然地聚集在店裡,
導遊向我們示意:「雖然大家還沒全員到齊,可以先開始喔。」
於是,美濃和紙雜貨手作體驗正式開始。
我們先用日語問候一句「おはようございます」,
幾乎所有團員都以精神飽滿的「おはようございます!」回應,讓工作人員十分驚喜。
當我們笑著說:「大家日文好厲害呢!」時,
有人風趣地回答:「我們只會這一句啦~」,現場立刻充滿笑聲,在和樂的氣氛中展開體驗。
這次大家挑戰的作品是:
「和紙ころころ武將系列 織田信長」。
不過,對許多台灣貴賓來說,對織田信長這位日本戰國武將還不是非常熟悉。
因此,我們便在自己所知的範圍內,
盡量以簡單易懂的方式介紹他在日本戰國時代的活躍與故事。
和紙ころころ套件內含「和服」與「頭盔」兩大部分,
屬於依照範例一步步完成的體驗形式,
比起完全自由創作,更適合第一次參加的客人與大型團體。
體驗途中,一位年長男性客人開心地說:
「有點難,但很好玩,成品也非常可愛呢。」
這句話成為當天讓工作人員最感欣慰的回饋之一。
動作俐落的客人,聽完說明後立刻加入自己的創意裝飾,
做出只屬於自己的「原創信長」;
較為謹慎的客人,則細心對照範本,一步一步仔細完成每個步驟。
大家在各自的步調中享受創作,最後全員都在時間內順利完成作品。
桌面上整齊排滿了一排排「織田信長」人偶,
拍照留念的時間也在歡笑聲中熱鬧進行。
體驗結束後,大家又選購了迷你福神擺飾、小紋圖案手巾、懷紙等充滿日本風情的伴手禮,
店內從頭到尾都洋溢著溫馨又熱鬧的氣氛。
這家旅行社的冬季日本行程,預計今後也將持續安排來本店體驗。
作為能深度感受日本文化的團體手作活動,
我們希望讓每一位參加的客人都真心覺得「來這裡真是太好了」。
今後,全體工作人員也會持續用心準備,用最好的狀態迎接來自華語圈與世界各地的團體旅客。

我的家鄉美濃市! 冬季限定的特別樂趣
雛人形集章活動與美濃和紙的「寒曬」景象
━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━
冬天的美濃市,空氣凜冽又清新,天空格外湛藍,是非常舒適的季節。
「うだつの上がる町並」老街風情,也與夏秋季節截然不同,呈現沉靜而優雅的氛圍。
在這樣的冬日街景中,讓整座城鎮瞬間華麗起來的活動,
就是由美濃市觀光協會主辦的「うだつの町家のおひなさま」與雛人形集章活動(Stamp Rally)。
以「うだつの上がる町並」為中心,町家與商店的屋內、門前會陳列歷史悠久的雛人形,以及以美濃和紙製作的各式雛人形作品,景象十分壯觀。
集章活動的方式是,先到觀光案內所「番屋」免費領取集章卡,從這裡出發。
一邊在合作店家購物或用餐,一邊收集印章,集滿5枚之後回到「番屋」參加抽獎。轉動扭蛋機,還有機會抽中讓人小小心動的實用獎品♪
當然,「美濃和紙雜貨體驗店 石川紙業」也是合作店家之一。歡迎順道來蓋章,順便參觀店內充滿和紙魅力的陳列。
而冬季的另一位主角,則是將美濃和紙原料「楮」浸泡在隆冬河水中的
「寒曬」景象。
將去皮後的白色楮皮浸入板取川清澈冰冷的河水中,經過多日反覆清洗去除雜質,同時在陽光下自然漂白——這是製作高品質和紙時不可或缺的重要工序。
過去,板取川沿岸各處都能看到這樣的作業景象,而如今則是每年冬季,由職人們聚集進行的一項傳承活動,成為只有在這個季節才能見到的美濃和紙風物詩。
在接近冰點的寒冷氣溫中,職人親自走入河中,小心翼翼處理楮樹纖維的身影,正可以說是「冬季美濃和紙的原點」。
透過嚴冬冰冷河水與陽光反覆洗鍊而成的纖維,所製作出的美濃和紙,擁有清爽潔白的色澤與柔和溫潤的手感,是名副其實的「冬天誕生的美濃和紙=寒曬和紙」,深受日本傳統工藝與和紙愛好者喜愛。
在「うだつ之町家」老街間巡禮雛人形,一邊參加集章活動享受美濃市古城小鎮散策,
若時間剛好,也可以順道前往板取川,參觀冬季限定的和紙原料「寒曬」作業景象。
之後,非常歡迎您再到「美濃和紙雜貨體驗店 石川紙業」走走,體驗日本中部美濃市的手作文化與觀光旅遊魅力。
店內陳列有以美濃和紙製作的雛人形雜貨、適合冬季室內裝飾的各式和風小物,
還有可以親手體驗製作的「和紙ころころ雛人形」等日本和紙手作體驗,非常適合安排在日本冬季旅遊、日本親子遊、日本小鎮深度旅遊行程中。
如果來店時對我們說一句「我是看了電子報才來的喔!」,
我可能會忍不住,一口氣把美濃冬天的自豪與日本地方旅遊的魅力通通分享給您(笑)。
冬日的寧靜氣息,與雛人形點綴出的華麗色彩。
再加上孕育美濃和紙的「嚴寒之川」故事。
這樣僅在冬季才能看見的美濃市風景,誠摯邀請您慢慢品味、細細感受,作為日本冬季旅行、美濃市觀光行程的一部分。

石川紙業「世界制霸&日本制霸」地圖計畫!請幫我們貼上您的出身地貼紙^^
━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━
美濃市引以為傲的文化資產、並被登錄為聯合國教科文組織無形文化遺產的「美濃和紙」,
創業123年的石川紙業,希望讓全世界更多人認識、喜愛並親身體驗美濃和紙的魅力──
帶著這樣的心願,我們啟動了一個特別的參與型企劃!
企劃名稱是……
【Youは和紙しに石川紙業へご来店?】活動!

石川紙業的店舖,就位在美濃市「うだつ之町家」歷史街區的正中央!
這棟建於1760年的町家,是被日本政府選定為重要傳統建造物群保存地區的特定建築,
我們將這座自江戶時代沿用至今的古民家加以整修,作為迎接各國旅客的和紙雜貨與手作體驗空間。
在這間店裡,我們放置了一幅世界地圖與一幅日本地圖,邀請每一位來訪的客人,在自己出身地上貼上一枚貼紙。
隨著貼紙愈來愈多,我們可以一眼看出美濃和紙體驗已經擴散到世界哪些角落,成為日本地方觀光與文化旅遊的一部分。
地圖逐漸被五顏六色的貼紙填滿的樣子,讓工作人員與來訪的旅客都感到格外興奮與開心。
◆世界制霸計畫◆
目前已經有來自44個國家(個人・團體)的客人蒞臨體驗!
然而,聯合國會員國共有193國,通往「世界制霸」的旅程還在持續進行中。
凡是第一次來店、來自我們尚未貼過貼紙國家的客人……
・我們將贈送一份美濃和紙雜貨小禮物!
・並邀請您在世界地圖上,為自己的出身地貼上一枚貼紙^^
下一個為地圖增添色彩的國家,會是哪裡呢?期待您把自己的國家告訴店內工作人員。
◆日本制霸計畫◆
來美濃和紙雜貨體驗店參加手作體驗的日本旅客,
究竟是來自47個都道府縣中的哪些地方最多呢?
距離近的較多?還是遠道而來的客人更多呢?

まゆ“みの”日記 送給女兒的懷舊禮物
━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━
前幾天整理家裡時,意外翻出了讓人不由得停下手來的「懷念物品」^^
那是我在懷孕時,
「想為即將出生的女兒親手做點什麼」
抱著這樣的心情,一針一線細心編織出來的小小手編衣物。
我小學的時候,從母親那裡學會了編織。
只要能掌握鉤針編織中的短針與長針,之後就能靈活運用,完成各種不同的作品,這點讓我非常開心,
記得當時我曾經瘋狂地編出好幾條「看起來像圍巾的東西」。
最著迷的那段時間,
我不只做出像玩偶一樣的「編織娃娃」,也編了好幾頂毛線帽,
還曾在跳蚤市場或個人交易中小小賺了一些零用錢^^
而當得知自己即將成為母親時,
我心想:「這次想為自己的孩子親手編織」,
於是便開始編起斗篷、小外套與背心。
沒想到女兒出生在三月,
那是一個天氣即將漸漸回暖的季節。
因為是以新生兒尺寸編織的衣服,結果幾乎沒有機會穿,就在轉眼之間「尺寸不合」了(笑)。
於是這些小小的手編衣物,就這樣在壁櫥深處靜靜睡了很長一段時間。
這一次整理房間時,與這些小小的手編衣服久別重逢,
毛線當年的觸感、以及一邊想像肚子裡的女兒一邊編織的那些夜晚,種種回憶一下子全都湧上心頭。
要丟掉,實在做不到。
但若只是一直收在櫃子深處,又覺得有點可惜。
於是我想到一個主意──
「讓現在女兒最喜歡的東西來穿上它們」^^
女兒每天都緊緊抱著的,是三麗鷗人氣角色・シナモン(Cinnamoroll)的絨毛玩偶,於是我試著讓它穿上那件衣服…
竟然,尺寸剛剛好!
放學回家的女兒發現換好衣服的シナモン後,
開心地說:「咦?シナモン變得好可愛^^」
然後笑咪咪地緊緊抱住它。
看著那個畫面,
我心裡想:「雖然女兒在嬰兒時期沒能穿上這件衣服,但現在它成為包裹女兒珍愛玩偶的一部分了呢」,內心充滿喜悅。
在實踐「斷捨離」時,我們會慢慢放手那些不再需要、尺寸不合、或壞掉的東西,但當中所包含的時間、心意與對家人的情感,其實很難說放就放呢^^
從母親那裡學來的編織技藝,透過我的雙手傳給女兒,
如今又以另一種形式,延續到女兒最喜歡的玩偶身上,我也彷彿看見這份溫暖記憶一點一滴被接力下去。
真心希望,這樣的「回憶之物」,能在未來與女兒一同越來越多,就像旅行途中收集的美好片刻一樣^^
