Weave your “wish” into a one-of-a-kind amulet. Step away from Asakusa’s bustle for a soothing moment of mindful thread weaving
A hands-on studio where you can handcraft your own “omamori” using a traditional loom
【手織り体験 おりなみ 浅草公園前店】
Located in Taito City, Tokyo, right next to Senso-ji Temple, “手織り体験 おりなみ 浅草公園前店” offers a space with a calm, traditional Japanese ambiance.
Here, using 24 colors of thread blessed at “天竹神社,” which enshrines Japan’s only deity of cotton, you can craft an omamori pouch on an authentic loom. The concept is to give shape to a “wish” for someone dear or for yourself.
Even beginners and children from age 3, with attentive support from our staff, can complete a surprisingly high-quality piece in about an hour. Between sightseeing in Asakusa, we offer a special experience where you can engage with Japan’s traditional culture and calmly create a one-of-a-kind treasure for yourself.
Top 3 Highlights
You can view the posted images at their original size by tapping or clicking.
1. Choose from 24 colors of “blessed” thread to create your own design
The first step is to select your favorite five threads from 24 colors. All of these threads have been blessed at 天竹神社, and the colors you choose will create amulets with completely different expressions. You can also freely customize the amulet cord (12 colors) and patches (14+ types). With endless combinations, you’ll complete a truly one-of-a-kind original piece.

2. Peace of mind for beginners and children! One-on-one instruction from staff
There’s no need to worry that “a loom looks difficult…”. A staff member will stay by your side and gently teach you how to keep the rhythm and pass the thread. The experience takes about one hour; although short, the focused weaving time is so immersive you may forget your everyday life. Children as young as 3 can participate, making it perfect for family trips and memories with friends. Groups of up to 14 people are also welcome.

3. A special step to infuse your “wish” and great photo spots
In addition to weaving, there is also a step to write a “wish card” to place inside. Sealing in your feelings deepens its meaning as an amulet. The finishing “double Kanou knot” is auspicious, and after completion you can take commemorative photos at the dedicated in-store photo spot. You can take home any leftover thread and continue savoring the memories of your trip at home.
