Two versions include: regular fidget and keychain.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is set of Flexi Snake with a plum blossom pattern and Kadomatsu stand. The design is based on the motif of the New Year, and by changing the color, it becomes a perfect ornament for spring.

About Kadomatsu/門松
Kadomatsu is decoration used to celebrate the New Year in Japan. A wooden bucket and three bamboos are often used as the centerpiece, and pine trees, flowers, and hand fans are used as ornaments.

The Kadomatsu stand consists of multiple parts and is easy to assemble. Please refer to the Gif for assembly instructions.

About snake design
Plum blossoms pattern: The design of the Kadomatsu stand is based on the plum blossoms pattern often found on New Year-inspired ornaments. Since plum blossoms are often used in Kadomatsu decorations, the flexi snake also acts as a plum tree when displayed on a Kadomatsu stand.
 

Gourd tail: Gourds are recognized as a good luck charm in Asia. I originally thought of using a gourd for the stand, but after seeing the rattlesnake's distinctive tail, I decided to switch to the idea of attaching it to the end of the rattlesnake's tail.

Print in Place with no supports. No assembly required. Please take pictures of your Flexi and share them with us!
