Wrapping the Japanese Way

Here is a nice video that shows you how to wrap things with a furoshiki (literally bath cloth). Wrapping things this way is an interesting and ecologically friendly alternative to plastic bags and the like. Furoshiki are very common in Japan, and often have beautiful designs.

Sorry we had some problems with this video (and others) displaying. I edited the post and wordpress for some reason converted the embedded code into escaped html characters (so & becomes & etc). One of those it is almost a bug, annoying, but not really that serious. I guess the wordpress developers need to look at when they escape out characters.

Work has been busy, so I haven’t been looking at this site much. And it is summer:)
