Best souvenir DIY from Japan πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅

This is the best souvenir you can make in Japan. Welcome to Hiziki, a shop where you can create a jewelry set out of a coin. First step is to pick the coin you like. You have coins from all around the world. And out of one coin, we’re going to create a ring and a necklace. Depending on the coin you choose, the shape and the color is going to be different. I’m in Tokyo, so as a souvenir, I got a coin from Japan. Next step is to measure a finger and find the right size. I’m going to write the size down. You also have a coin guide, and you have to make sure that the ring you choose is the right size for the shape you want to go for. Then you’re going to bring it to them and they’re going to create it for you. He used the tool to press it and make a hole inside of the coin. This is how it looks so far. And then he was shaping it right in front of me, sanding it and polishing it. It was super shiny. And with the rest of the coin, he’s going to create this beautiful necklace. I love it. And it cost $24.

  7. There is a HUGE difference between calling a 12 year old or even better a VIDEO GAME SCENE with a 12 year old pretty/beautiful and calling them hot.

    There is nothing wrong with calling someone beautiful. It's a compliment.

  8. In a japanese cultural center I was taught to craft a turtle with a coin in the belly for good fortune, a friend who travels to japan offen scolded me because Japanese respect too much the money to waste it like I did 😒
