Knot Willow
Also called "wanryu," "wan" means to bend and make a loop. Since willow branches are flexible and bend well, it is said that it also means to make a loop and pray for peace during the journey so that the person can turn and return safely.
In ancient China, there was a custom in which the sender and the receiver would part by tying willow branches together when parting. It is said to have been first used at tea ceremonies.

Nowadays, it seems that some mass merchandisers sell red berries that have nothing to do with New Year's, just because they are red berries.

Senryo is a red berry with good luck to welcome the New Year. Because of their auspicious names, senryo and manryo are indispensable for the New Year's holiday along with pine trees. For these reasons, they are considered lucky charms that bring prosperity in business and monetary fortune.　　　　　　　
*The language of Senryo flowers is "profit," "dainty," "wealth," "fortune," "endowment," "blessed talent," and "riches.

Green bamboo
The beautifully colored bamboo vase that I had cut for easy flower arrangement. The number of craftsmen who can cut bamboo beautifully is decreasing due to the aging of the workforce.

They will be useful as vessels for arranging flowers after the year-end and New Year holidays.
If you want to keep it green, store it in the freezer to keep it fresh. The back of the bamboo is pierced with a small hole, so it can be hung for decoration. You can either go out with thumbtacks or nails to the gold.
You can fish it down with tegus from its current state or place it on a shelf, and enjoy!
