Description
This felt zebra hanging figurine carries a little stack of wrapped presents on its back, ready to bring some cheer to your Christmas tree. The zebra is white felt with bold black stripes running over its face, neck, body and legs. It has a black muzzle, black ears, black hooves, a black tail and small black eyes. Balanced on its back are three tiny parcels: a green one at the bottom, a red one in the middle and a white one on top, each tied with ribbon. It measures 18cm high, 10.6cm across and 4cm deep, a size that shows up clearly among the branches.
We think it makes a cheerful change from the usual reindeer and robins on the tree. Hang it at eye level, where the stripes and the bright little parcels can be seen up close, or mix it with other felt and fabric decorations for a soft, homely look. It also looks charming hung from a mantelpiece garland, a wreath or a few bare twigs in a vase, so it can brighten a hallway or a windowsill through the festive weeks. As a small Christmas gift it is a lovely thing to give, whether on its own, tucked into a stocking or added to a present as an extra treat.
The zebra and its parcels are made from felt, which gives the whole piece a soft, slightly fuzzy texture and a cosy look that sits well with natural greenery. Felt is best kept dry. Lift away dust with a soft dry brush or cloth, and at the end of the season wrap it in tissue paper and store it somewhere dry so it keeps its shape. Bring it out again each December and it will soon feel like part of the family's Christmas tradition.
