Thank you so much for teaching us, I'm planning to have a trip in Osaka Japan this July and I want to buy my mother and sister a kimono or yukata so that they can wear it in Tenjin Matsuri 😁
I'm making a yukata according to your instructions, and now I find I have to make a telescoping hanger, too. :-) My oh so western washing machine does not have a Stylish setting, I will have to use Delicates instead. It is the setting used for wool so should work. Thank you!
Hi Sven, I'm happy to read your comment :) And I'm glad to hear you're making a yukata using my instructions! Yeah it's better to have such a hanger to hang a yukata. And it's good that your washing machine Delicates mode ;)
I always use hand washing technique. Haha.. really enjoyed handwashing. It feels like old days ☺️. Sometimes when i lazy, i use washing machine 😂. Silk kimono need to 洗い張り。 I was washing a an antique meisen ladies kimono. Suddenly, it's bleeding alot! 怖い〜〜!After that i removed it quickly before it turns disaster. But the color is fade little bit. It is purple kimono, the 袷 is red & pink. The color bleed alot. It spread little bit to the design color. I should do dry cleaning.
Hi Alec san, it's nice to wash by hand :D Yeah I don't wear silk but heard it needs 洗い張り, and that costs a lot. ahh bleeding! that's 怖い ;) But that was a good try lol
Hello, thank you for video! I just want to ask something, I hope you will help me. I live in England and I bought a kimono here, but I also want to buy belt, like obi. Maybe you know japanese online shops that ship all over the world? Thank you
