Long before today's eco-friendly philosophy of "reduce, reuse, recycle" entered America's collective consciousness, furoshiki--the Japanese method of wrapping things with fabric--flourished as a time-honored and practical art form.

In Wrapping with Fabric, Etsuko Yamada--born into a long-line of furoshiki makers in Kyoto--explains the "one cloth, many uses" ideology behind the craft, the etiquette of color and the craft's fascinating history. From there, she shares the myriad ways in which a few basic techniques can transform a simple square of cloth into an elegant wrapper.

Use your folded fabrics to:
Gift-wrap anything from books to flowers,
Bundle up a picnic Tote items around,
Use as a handbag or backpack,
Make into a pillow covering,
Create decorative coverings for vases, tissue boxes, and more.

The book is a quiet reminder that opportunities for artistry are everywhere around you.  Wrapping With Fabric is the craft book that makes it easy to bring a touch of grace and ingenuity to everyday life--and help preserve the environment, too.
