I think Kadomatsu is a decoration of New Year. We Japanese use this during only New Year. However if you want to use it, you can do that. It is not unlucky, and Kadomatsu is a symbol for welcome to luck. Have a good time at your son's birthday party!! best wishes, Tomoko Thank you for your message.

It looks a bit like a wreath made from straw. What's it called? See ya, Nigel Hi Tomoko,
