A shimekazari imbued with a wish for peaceful, disaster-free days.
The design evokes the rays of light shining from behind the sun, resembling a double halo that symbolizes divine protection and good fortune.

The wooden slats (san-dawara) represent the sun, while the rings symbolize the Earth and the moon—a cosmic balance of light and harmony.
You can also adorn it with seasonal flowers for a touch of personal expression.

Note: “San-dawara” refers to the circular lids found on both ends of traditional rice bales.

A shimenawa marks a sacred boundary where deities descend.
It acts as a spiritual barrier, keeping impurities and evil spirits away.
Hanging a shimenawa at the entrance symbolizes a home prepared to welcome the Toshigami-sama, the deity of the New Year.

Traditionally, New Year’s preparations begin on December 13, known as Susuharai no Hi (the day for year-end cleaning).
It is customary to hang the shimenawa between December 13 and 31, and remove it at the end of Matsu-no-uchi (January 8; or January 15 in some regions).

Please note:

• The 29th is sometimes avoided as it can be read as “double hardship” (ni-jū-ku), though some interpret it as fuku (good fortune).

• The 31st is called Ichinichi Kazari (one-day decoration) and is traditionally considered inauspicious.
