Do you know the "Thread Specialty Store" Avril?
When it comes to ribbon specialty stores, brands like Mokuba Ribbon and Ai Ribbon Teraki are famous, but...
Did you know there is a store that specializes in "thread"? The name of the thread specialty store is 'Avril (アヴリル)'*
Here are the threads from the specialty store Avril ♡ Aren't they just adorable, delicate, and wonderfully unique? ♡
Avril has physical stores in Kyoto, Tokyo, and Osaka* They also have an online shop, where demand for their cute threads is soaring from all over the country♡
So, what is the charm of Avril's threads? Let's take a look♩
The charm of thread specialty store "Avril" ① So many types!
The appeal of the specialty store Avril is simply the wide variety of threads! The sight of many threads adorning the walls is truly breathtaking♡
Avril offers regular natural material threads like wool and cotton, but also cute threads that you won’t find anywhere else, such as those with ribbons or pom-poms attached, or fluffy, fuzzy materials♡
Many threads are hand-dyed by artisans or bundled together, resulting in a plethora of unique styles not available at other stores◎
With so many different types of threads, girls express that they never get bored when they visit the store! There are a lot of voices saying they feel overwhelmed by the choices!♡
The charm of thread specialty store "Avril" ② Sold by the 10g unit ♡
One delightful point at Avril is that they sell threads in 10g units◎ Usually, threads are purchased as a whole ball.
However, when used for weddings (like for wrapping petit gifts), there are often cases where a bride just wants "a little bit!"
But in ordinary stores, you can’t buy in smaller units, leading to regrets from past brides who ended up buying a lot of thread at a high price...
However, at Avril, threads can be bought in 10g units, which is very popular among brides who only want a little! Just being able to use various threads bit by bit can really lift your spirits*
The charm of thread specialty store "Avril" ③ Create your own original thread by combining your favorite threads with "Hiki-so" ♡
At Avril, you can also combine your favorite threads using a method called "Hiki-so"◎
Isn’t it amazing that you can mix and match several threads to create your own original thread? A wedding with a one-of-a-kind thread sounds wonderful! ♡
