If you’re wondering what they are, they’re traditional Japanese New Years decorations that traditionally would actually go above a door. I don’t think the apartment would like me putting a nail in the hallway wall though… They’re primarily made of hemp and rice straw, which does make them a bit fragile and definitely not cat proof.DateDecember 29, 2022In relation toPicture PostPicture Post: Every year I pick up one new ornament for the tree.
