✨ Happy 2026 friends - 👾 May it be fulfilled with beauty, love and art 🥂 Images: designs from Japanese fireworks companies (such as Hirayama Fireworks and Yokoi Fireworks ...) The Japanese term for fireworks, hanabi (花火), combines the words for fire, bi (火), and flower, hana (火). The traditional Japanese way with presenting flowers, their shapes and colors as well as their scents, has something in common with these.
