"Hanamaru" Gift Envelope That Can Be Used as a Coaster - Mint Green

Celebrate life's "perfect" moments! Two delightful uses even after the gift is given ☆ This is the "Hanamaru" gift envelope, designed to celebrate the "perfect" milestones of the person you're gifting. Once you've used it for its primary purpose as a gift envelope, the "Hanamaru" (flower-circle) portion can be repurposed as a coaster for your daily life. It would also be a lovely gesture to gift these in different colors to friends. The accompanying slips include "寿" (Kotobuki - Congratulations) and a plain option. The Japanese washi paper outer wrap features an embossed chequered pattern, lending it a refined texture. The "Hanamaru" portion is crafted using the Japanese traditional craft of "Mizuhiki" (decorative knotting), specifically the "Awaji-musubi" knot, tied in a favorable eight-time sequence for prosperity. The "Awaji-musubi" knot is known for its symbolism of sealing and warding off evil, as it's difficult to untie once tied. Furthermore, it is said to signify strong bonds, as pulling both ends tightens the knot, making it widely used for celebratory occasions. Please use this as a gift to support the important milestones and daily life of your cherished ones.
