Just Place It in the Welcome Space for a Gorgeous "Welcome Trunk" ♩
The "Welcome Trunk," filled with cherished photos, stuffed animals, and preserved flowers, became a trend abroad and is now a hugely popular item in Japan too!*
Instead of a welcome board, there is a growing trend among brides-to-be to DIY a striking, overseas-style welcome trunk. It allows you to express your unique vision within a single box, which is quite appealing! ♩
This Summer's Trend is "Welcome Basket"!
In place of the welcome trunk, this summer, the "Welcome Basket" is gaining popularity! ♩ A "Welcome Basket" using a "basket" instead of a trunk creates a refreshing atmosphere, perfect for summer weddings! ♡
Additionally, the affordability of "Welcome Baskets" is appealing! ♡ For brides-to-be who find antique trunks too expensive, a basket is a better alternative. You can find many cute baskets at 100 yen shops and 315 yen shops! ♩
