Grand Remake of Congratulatory Envelope! Collecting All the Decorative Cords from Celebrations Received as a Couple to Create a Hagoita for Our Daughter is Amazing!

Traditional New Year Decoration "Hagoita"

"Hagoita" is decorated to celebrate a girl's first New Year.

It is a traditional Japanese decoration that embodies the meaning of "bouncing away misfortunes and growing beautifully."＊

This hagoita can be remade into

✅ Yui-no decorations

✅ Mizuhiki for congratulatory envelopes

which seems to be a wonderful way to repurpose them.

Don't you think it would be very moving to turn the yui-no decorations and mizuhiki you received when getting married into a hagoita for your daughter's future New Year decorations?

If the partner's parents used the yui-no decorations they prepared for their grandchild, it would make them feel like "What a thoughtful daughter-in-law. I'm so glad my son married her."

Here are some Hagoita♡

A colorful hagoita adorned with pine, bamboo, and plum, as well as cranes from yui-no decorations. The large crane in the upper left catches the eye.

This is how it looks when the often three-dimensional and luxurious "Kansai-style" yui-no decoration is made into a hagoita. It is decorated to the extent that it overhangs from the hagoita, making it likely the centerpiece of New Year decorations.

A cute hagoita centered on pink yui-no decorations. It features a large "chrysanthemum flower" that radiates outward.♡

Where can you make it?

Many people handcraft their own when turning congratulatory envelopes into hagoita, but since yui-no items can be three-dimensional or large, it seems many prefer to ask a yui-no shop to do it. (They will turn your yui-no decorations into a hagoita.)

The smallest size at 45cm costs 31,900 yen, and the larger size at 75cm costs 52,800 yen.＊

Using Yui-no Decorations and Mizuhiki for New Year Decorations♡

An idea of turning yui-no decorations and mizuhiki from congratulatory envelopes into hagoita.

There have been various remaking methods in the past, like using mizuhiki for pouches, chopstick holders, or creating boards,

but I thought it’s wonderful to keep those precious yui-no decorations and mizuhiki for "the future New Year's decorations for our daughter," not just for ourselves.＊
