Today is two hundred and fifty-seven in the series. Today we will continue a series that focuses on the displays and decorations for Hinamatsuri or the Doll Festival in Japan.
Hinamatsuri is March 3rd. It is a very important holiday in Japan. It is not, however, a national holiday. It is sometimes called Girls' Day when translated. Really from mid-February families that have young girls will put out these dolls to honor their daughters. The displays can be very simple or very elaborate. Girls love to look at the pretty dolls and they are sometimes given small gifts on the 3rd.
There are many variations to the display of the dolls. Today we will make one of the items that is included with the displays. This is the stand and vase that are placed between the Emperor and Empress on the first tier of the display. A sprig of peach blossoms is placed in the vase. Two identical vases are placed next to each other. This origami is very pretty when completed, but there are a few steps to take. This first part will show the stand, while Part Two will show the vase and the sprig.
