Our beautiful tearoom, generously donated by the City of Perth, is nearing completion. We just couldn't wait for all the finishing touches before displaying our Hina Ningyo for Hina Matsuri (Girls' Day Doll Festival) on March 3. The display will be up for a couple of weeks even though tradition states that the display should be taken down after March 3 if you want girls in the family to have a chance of getting married! Fortunately the people in Kansai are a little more lenient on the time and allow the display to be up during March so we are going with that belief :)
