Mini Kadomatsu for those short on space or on a budget

Yesterday, while shopping for New Year decorations, I saw a pair of small, cute Kadomatsu, slightly bigger than my hand. They were only plastic and not real pine and bamboo. At first, I was surprised, but when you think about it, it makes perfect sense to sell mini Kadomatsu for people short on space. 

We don't actually display Kadomatsu. It took me a long time to warm to the Japanese New Year decorations as I much prefer Christmas decorations. However, I have slowly come around to see the beauty of them. But I still haven't warmed to kadomatsu enough to want a pair outside my house! I was thinking, even though I have the space for the regular Kadomatsu, I might get myself the mini ones to get me to used to the idea of displaying Kadomatsu.

I presume the mini ones were designed for people who live in a smaller space such as an apartment, condo or dormitory. I wonder do people display them outside or inside. I imagine they could easily blow over outside. This small version might also appeal to people on a budget. The ones pictured in this post are 980 yen, but I am sure you can find cheaper ones of this size elsewhere.

Have you ever seen mini kadomatsu on display?
