After spring cleaning (kind of 😅), Sushi made Shimekazari on top of the house entrance to prevent bad spirits from entering and to invite Toshi gami (The Shinto deity who visits houses every new year's day) to descend and visit. This traditional New Year decoration is normally made of shimenawa, a sacred Shinto straw rope, and other materials such as bitter oranges, ferns, and white ritual paper strips called shide. Sushi used lemon grass instead of straw rope. We are ready to welcome 2022!
本格的! 今年もよろしくお願いいたします!
