Happy midsummer eve everyone!

Thank you. Don't tend to celebrate it here in the US. but it's too bad. Sounds like fun.

Same back to you, thank you :) We don't do maypoles much here, more midsummer bonfires :) Lovely design <3

Thank you to all who complemented the design. I will have to give credit where credit is due, though, as I saw something very similar online and used as inspiration for my build. But yes, it is great fun.

@PlayerSinger2010 It's a celebration of the summer solstice which is celebrated in (among other countries) Sweden. Here we do it by dancing around a maypole, wearing flowers in our hair and eating things like pickled herring, freshly harvested summer potatoes and, for dessert, strawberries with whipped cream (or a strawberry cake). In other countries they light big bonfires. For us, the celebration takes place on the Friday closest to the actual summer solstice, so today in other words.

We celebrate this too, young and unmarried girls make flower crowns and wear them. Never seen a pole though, but flower vendors will sell flower crowns on this day and Lady's bedstraw flowers which are associated with this holiday. Also, the night before it's supposed to be a night for very strong love magic so Romany witches make love spells. And men are not supposed to go out that night for fear they will meet magical dancing ladies that will smite them.

We used to have Maypole dances in the US. Or at least one community we lived in did. When I was very tiny I went to see my sister dance in one. I enjoyed it so much that it sticks in my memory even today. I wish we still had them!

Happy Midsummer from Finland. :)

Beautiful build. Happy Midsummer from Sweden, I hope you all had a great weekend in the warm weather.

Glad midsommar i efterskott :)

@SERVERFRA From what I understand, it happens on the summer solstice, which is when the days start getting shorter and the nights longer, so it's a bit different than what "feels" like midsummer to the rest of us, (I think it's because July is halfway through the year and so we think of that as midsummer, but others might disagree with me on that).
