16 December Christmas workshop We held a mini Christmas tree and wreath-making workshop 🎅.
The workshop was held in the morning and afternoon on 16 December, and was also busy with additional friends and customers who came to shop on the same day! Everyone from primary school students to adults enjoyed making artwork with lots of ideas♪
It was the first time Suzuki Socks held a workshop, but thank you to the many people who came. We have not yet decided on the next schedule, but we hope to hold another project that people of all ages can enjoy! We will let you know if we decide to hold another one here♪

Christmas presents have a long history, from ancient Roman times, more than 2000 years ago, long before the spread of Christianity… In ancient Roman times, from 17 to 24 December, during the Saturnalia, the festival of the god of agriculture, all people stopped working, ate, danced and made merry, and gave each other gifts, which was the beginning of Christmas gift-giving.
🎄Why do we put Christmas presents in socks?
It comes from the legend of St Nicholas, who is said to be the model for Father Christmas… A poor family wanted to peddle their eldest daughter to marry off their second and third daughters. When St Nicholas found out, he secretly threw a bag of gold coins through the window to help the family. The gold coins “snuck” into the daughter’s socks, which she had hung out to dry next to the fireplace. With the money, the three daughters were happily married. This legend was passed down through the generations, and Father Christmas eventually began to put gifts in socks hanging from fireplaces and beds.
Why not give your special friends, family, and loved ones a Christmas present of socks as a token of your appreciation and love? Quality socks, which are hard to buy for yourself, make the perfect Christmas gift. Free handsome gift wrapping in December.
