TONER PLASTICS-The Weave Wheel Lanyard provides everything you need to create personalized lanyards using the new Japanese braid- making technique called Kumihimo. Kumi means coming together and himo means strong. This technique began in 550 B.C. when the Buddhist religion spread in Japan and people began using decorative cords during ceremonies. The Weave Wheel kit is a fun way to incorporate this style into lanyard projects.
