Tiny blue Matariki Star

Saw this lovely little star in a shop the other day.  Matariki is celebrated end June/beginning of July each year and is the Māori name for the cluster of stars also known as the Pleiades. This cluster rises in midwinter and  it heralds the start of the  Māori new year. A new public holiday is being added next year to mark Matariki. 
Thanks Pinkhairedlady for hosting Tiny Tuesday challenge.
