Well, you all must be curious why suddenly i am interested in making koinobori? Ya, that is a festival (i still not sure about the name of the festival yet) which will be held in Putrajaya at 5th May. So, as representative from UPSI, we need to prepare koinobori (full set with 5 colours) and bring to there. Of course, i need to know what is koinobori first before proceed to making it right?
Basically, the koinobori is like the photo i show above. About the history of koinobori, just refer to the link k.
For the first time of making, of course i need to start from the basic and small one. This is the template for you to download-http://kids.nifty.com/handmade/paper/event/04/images/koinobori01.pdf
This is the final result of koinobori made from paper which i take from the web.
Just be an annoy lady for a while, i have used up to 40 minutes just to finish the first one. Want to see my result? Here it is.
Not so nice i think as i was talking with my mum through phone while doing this. Well, it is good for the first try right? Hehe. By the way, i have found one website on how to make koinobori using cloth. Maybe it is useful for us in the making of big and real koinobori according to the size given later.
Ok. Change topic for a while. Just now my roommate saw this in FB while i was doing the koinobori. This is about the Japan festival which will be held in Times Square this coming weekend. So, are you coming also? We plan to go but the date and time still not confirm yet.
Well, hope to be there and gain more knowledge regarding Japanese culture.
