Paper Tree

For the remainder of May, to celebrate APAHM/AAPIHM & to continue our ongoing Hearts for Love Project combatting anti-Asian hate with love and origami hearts, we invite your to come into Paper Tree, fold a heart, and add it to our count & display! Our goal is 10,905 hearts, of which we’ve collected 8,554 of. Help us hit our goal! *From March 19, 2020 to December 31, 2021, a total of 10,905 hate incidents against Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) persons were reported to Stop AAPI Hate

Some great beginner options for getting your toes wet in the origami world.

Interested in learning Japanese? Want to practice writing your hiragana, katakana, or kanji characters? (P.S. A Buddha board is a great no-waste option for practicing your characters). Need a pocket dictionary to look up unfamiliar words you hear or want to learn? We’ve got you covered!

Paper isn’t the only thing we carry. We have a few Furoshiki in stock which make a great reusable gift wrap alternative! We also have books on wrapping, wrapping with fabric, as well as using fabric to create origami! How cool is that? “The Japanese Art of Gift Wrapping” dvd, by our very own Vicky Mihara Avery, is available in store only but you can shop the other books online!
