Do You Know 'Himmeli'? ♡

This time, we're introducing 'Himmeli', a Nordic decorative item, as a wedding decoration. Its form is also referred to as a "mobile of light."*

Originally, Himmeli is a decorative item for festivals in Finland, so it carries a celebratory aura. It is said to mean "bringing happiness" ♡. It's a perfect item for weddings!*

Himmeli Can Be Made by Hand ♡

DIY Himmeli is popular among stylish Instagrammers. The basic materials can be paper or plastic straws, or hollow wheat straw specifically for Himmeli. Cut them and connect them with string to complete it.*

All materials can be obtained cheaply and easily, which is great!*

If you spray them with gold or silver color spray, they can look metallic!*

While it may look difficult at first glance, the basic shape is simple. You create triangles using straws cut to the same length, and connect many of them to form polyhedra. You can create various shapes depending on the number of triangles and how you connect them.*

The Charm of Himmeli Is Its Versatility ♡

By changing the materials or shapes, completely different works of Himmeli can be created. Leaving it as is gives it a natural ambiance, but adding flowers or ribbons can create a cute atmosphere!*

If you hang Himmeli from a tree at the venue with ribbons, it can instantly create an overseas wedding vibe. You can also decorate a welcome tree with them! ♡

You can also choose not to hang them and display them as decor. ♡ Star-shaped Himmeli is sure to shine at weddings themed around stars!
