It's that time again — time to customize your JourneeBox! This month's box is centered around the sights, sounds, and scents of Kyoto, Japan.
Let's take a look at your choices!
Kyoto Furoshiki, Wooden Handles, and Workshop
Kevia Style has partnered with Musabi to include furoshiki cloth and wooden handles made in Kyoto. Subscribers can choose between pink, purple, or green cloth.
You'll also get access to a furoshiki wrapping workshop on September 11 at 5 p.m.
Here's how the brand describes it:
"Furoshiki wrapping is not only a sustainable life practice, it’s an art! Easy, fun, and creative, join industry experts from Musubi to learn how to use your furoshiki. Operating in Kyoto since 1937, Musubi has been a world source for traditional furoshiki. These experts will teach several different ways to tie your beautiful furoshiki, as well as the origins and history of the art. So grab your furoshiki and join us for this interactive live workshop! Additional furoshiki styles will also be available for purchase. *Yes, the furoshiki workshop is provided in English."
