Let’s make our own sakura chopsticks

桜のmy箸をつくろう

One-of-a-kind experience at the base of a national park

Chopsticks made from the wood of sakura trees are an eco-friendly souvenir and a memorable experience that is uniquely Japanese. Choose your chopstick from one of the pre-cut patterns and sand it to a shape of your liking. After you have the shape, you can add your name with a wood burning pen and finish it with a coat of walnut oil to complete your one-of-a-kind chopsticks.
