Description
This duck egg velvet bow is a hanging Christmas decoration with a soft, plush finish and a gentle, chalky blue colour that sits quietly among festive greens and golds. Two full, rounded loops gather into a neat wrapped centre, and two long tails fall beneath in soft folds, each ending in a crisp angled point. A twisted gold cord rises from the centre as a hanging loop, giving a fine line of warm colour against the cool blue velvet.
Hang it from a hook on an inside door, the top of a mirror, a banister or the end of a mantelpiece, or loop it near the top of the tree. It also sits well at the heart of a wreath or a garland along the stairs. The pale duck egg tone works beautifully with silver, white and natural wood, and it softens a scheme of deep green foliage. Because it hangs from its own cord, it moves easily from doorway to tree as your decorating plans change. It is also a lovely finishing touch for a Christmas gift or hamper, tied to the outside of a box for someone who loves a pastel Christmas.
The bow is made from velvet, with a soft pile that catches the light and shows the depth of the colour. To keep its shape, lift it by the cord rather than the tails, and smooth any creases with your fingers when it comes out of storage. For care, brush the pile lightly with a soft dry cloth to lift dust, and keep it away from damp. Between seasons, wrap it loosely in tissue and store it flat in a box so the loops stay full for next Christmas. For the best effect, hang it at eye level on a door or mirror, where the velvet and the gold cord can be admired up close.
