The little lights in the night sky have become harder to see in brightly lit cities due to the advancement of civilization. We send the starry sky of nature to those who have few opportunities to gaze at it. When you peek inside the envelope, the light twinkles surprisingly. As if looking at a photograph, fold the envelope in half along a straight line and bring your entire face close to the envelope to peer inside. If you block light from entering from the sides of your eyes, the twinkling will appear larger. The "Starry Sky Envelope" is a romantic envelope with a small hole. When you look inside the envelope towards the light source, light shines through the small opening, creating the appearance of a sky full of stars. In reality, they don't appear as sharp points of light like actual stars but are more dispersed, resembling small flowers (or fireworks). When foreground flowers are out of focus and background flowers are in focus, various floral patterns can be seen in the darkness, creating a fantastical sensation as if entering a room within an installation art piece. https://cdn1-next.cybassets.com/s/files/5993/ckeditor/pictures/content_ffd008e5-aa74-449a-8f19-014a85872008.png We have carefully prepared this starry sky envelope so you can gift stars to those who haven't had the chance to witness their beauty. This small token may bring them unexpected healing and warmth. Convey your care and blessings through this starry sky envelope, letting the light of the stars illuminate their everyday lives. From the outside, it looks much like a regular envelope, distinguished only by its thick black lining. However, when you peer inside towards a light source, the interior of the envelope transforms into a miniature universe radiating with starlight. https://cdn1-next.cybassets.com/s/files/5993/ckeditor/pictures/content_2a3a30d1-cd1d-4599-b2f2-c938da47b274.png How to use: Place your letter inside the Starry Sky Envelope and send it to your loved ones.
