Kadomatsu - for Japanese New Year

Kadomatsu (literally "gate pine") is a traditional Japanese decoration of the New Year. There are usually three bamboo shoots tied with straw and some pine around the edges.  The kadomatsu come in pairs and represent male and female entities. The kadomatsu are placed right outside of the house, touching the foundation of your home and at the entrance. They are placed after Christmas until January 7 (or January 15 during the Edo period) and are considered temporary housing (shintai) for kami. Designs for kadomatsu vary depending on region but are typically made of pine, bamboo, and  sometimes ume tree sprigs which represent longevity, prosperity and steadfastness, respectively.
 

After January 15 (or in many instances the 19th) the kadomatsu is burned to appease the kami or toshigami and release them. Wolf-Tek has scripted the kadomatsu I made to burn down in stages.

Copy only in three sizes.

Bonshō - Japanese Temple Bell

Bonshō are large bells from Japan. They are found in Buddhist temples throughout the country, where they are used to summon the monks to prayer and to demarcate periods of time. Rather than containing a clapper, bonsho are struck from the outside, using either a hand-held mallet or a beam suspended on ropes. Their penetrating and pervasive tone carries over considerable distance, and is thought to have supernatural properties such as being heard in the underworld; their spiritual significance means that Bonshō play an important role in Buddhist ceremonies, particularly the New Year and Obon festivals.

This Bonshō is bronze patina in a weathered wood frame, with a wooden mallet. Touch the bell to hear its resonance.

Wood Torii Gate

A torii is a traditional Japanese gate most commonly found at the entrance of or within a Shinto shrine, where it symbolically marks the transition from the profane to the sacred. Special spiritual elements in nature are honored in Shinto, and may be marked with a torii gate. Torii may be unpainted wood or painted red and black. This torii is all natural weathered wood.

Cherry Blossom Time @ Wind River Asian

Hanami ("flower viewing") is the Japanese traditional custom of enjoying the transient beauty of flowers, "flower" in this case almost always meaning cherry blossoms ("sakura"). From the end of March to early May, sakura bloom all over Japan. The practice of hanami is many centuries old. The custom is said to have started during the Nara Period (710-794).

Walk among the lovely blooming cherry trees or sit at a Japanese picnic spot and enjoy a festive meal with friends. Savor this transitory beauty.

Tinies can picnic there too :)
