What you can expect

⭐️Experience Flow⭐️

  1. Choose Your Design in Advance
    Please decide on your design before your visit.
    If you send your design to us by email or Instagram, we can prepare a draft in advance.
  2. Select Your Yarn Colours at the Studio
    Choose your preferred colour combination from our wide selection of yarns.
  3. Tufting Gun Instruction
    Our staff will carefully explain how to use the tufting gun, making it safe and easy for beginners.
  4. Tufting Process
    Start tufting your design by punching the yarn into the fabric.
  5. Backing Attachment
    We attach the backing to secure and finish the rug.
  6. Trimming
    The surface is trimmed with clippers to refine the shape and texture.
  7. Your Rug Is Complete!
    Your original rug is finished and ready to take home.

At Tufting Studio CREA, you can create your own one-of-a-kind rug based entirely on your original design.
Choose from around 60 vibrant yarn colours, freely combining them to bring your idea to life.

The standard size allows you to make a rug of up to 30 cm square or rectangular, perfect for decorating an entryway, living room, or even hanging on the wall.
Imagining where to display your finished piece is part of the fun.

Your rug will be ready to take home on the same day, making it a perfect Kyoto souvenir — something truly personal that exists nowhere else in the world.

The studio is located in an exceptional area, just steps from Shimogamo Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and only a short walk from the Kamogawa River — an ideal stop during your sightseeing.

Best of all, this is an indoor experience, so you can enjoy it comfortably even on rainy days.

If you would like to create a larger rug, please select an additional size upgrade option.
Additional charges apply for size upgrades.
