Found a real & tiny mikan, so decided to make one. Very children’s toy-ish, but hopefully symbolically correct. And I did clean the house before making this.

A decoration set in pairs by the building entrance for welcoming the new year. This seems to be a standard design- so far, i havent seen any variation.
