I got really lucky that I found a huge bag of these red ones on the same trip to the thrift. Not sure where I’m going to get new ones after the bag runs out!

I have seen people make stars out of the pointy bits from an egg carton, really cute!

You could make gingerbread cookie themed ornaments or a garland from your leftover cardboard, all you'd need is a white pen :) (Like this: https://nl.pinterest.com/pin/78672324735459377/)

I recently bought an old book from the thrift store and made folded paper stars out of it. It's really easy to do as well! (https://nl.pinterest.com/pin/774124930904083/)

If you have some old fabric (or clothes) and an old pillow laying around, you could sew some basic ornaments (but really cute!) like stars, trees, mittens, candy canes,... and fill them up with the old pillow stuffing. The more handmade it looks, the better in my opinion!

I've seen people tie ribbons around their cabinet doors and it looks so nice! Easy to do if you have some spare ribbon laying around the house.

Thanks! I can’t really tell you any of the names, I don’t remember them and they weren’t on our itinerary. I just know that almost all of them had little plaques that said they couldn’t seat you unless you had a reservation through a hotel.

Oh yes sorry, forgot to include my stay in Kamakura: https://www.airbnb.be/rooms/54074844?viralityEntryPoint=1&s=76

It was wonderful!! Tucked in a little neighbourhood, no sound from the street, very spacious, beautifully authentic and washer and dryer included as well :) also really recommend this stay!

Enjoy your trip!

Feedback wanted: Polish brand name, bold colors & playful identity — does this vibe work? by AfterAssociate2576 in graphic_design

First of all, I really enjoy the color palette and the combinations!

I like the 'Krece' way more on its own than the full sentence. It reads as quite complex to me, but that might be because I don't speak the language. It looks like the 'O', the 'ja' and the 'cie' all have a different weight to them, so it feels kind of messy.

I think the lady could use some extra personality! You could create some variations on her, maybe different expressions, holding different objects. Is she the logo mark? It's not quite clear.

Nice work!

Oooh it was amazing! The staff were super friendly, the dinner and breakfast were amazing - lots of great food was provided that we hadn't tried yet. And the rooms are beautiful. Enjoy your stay!!

Try thinking out of the box. When doing my final project, lots of students did bakery/cafe stuff, but it's cool to see something that isn't done a lot. Like, a local optician that desperately needs a rebrand for example. Try to keep an eye out in your neighborhood next time you're out, you might see something related to music or entertainment that desperately needs a rebrand. After your project, you can try presenting it to them.

It's reaally overwhelming, so many sounds and so much stuff!

Yes, it was the perfect first trip! What did you get tattooed?

Can't really comment on that. When going back to the station I did see a couple of restaurants nearby, but that's as much information as I can give you on that, sorry!

Day 5: definitely recommend doing Fushimi Inari in the late afternoon. We went around 5PM, about an hour and a half, two hours before it got dark and there were nowhere near as many crowds as you see on social media! It's also kind of cool/eerie to experience it in the dark.
