Description
This wooden hanging Christmas decoration is a little grey cat dressed for the festive season, cut in the shape of the cat itself. It wears a bright red jumper patterned with white and green snowflakes, diamonds and stripes, trimmed with green and white at the neck and cuffs. On its head is a red Santa hat with a white bobble, its tip falling to one side. The curled tail is marked with fine dashes that suggest soft fur, and the face has a small smile and neat whiskers. The design is printed on both sides, so the cat looks just as cheerful from the back of the tree as from the front. It measures 9.5cm in length and 6.5cm in width, and the wood is a slim 0.3cm, so it is very light.
Hang it on the Christmas tree, where the red and white twisted cord loops easily over a branch and lets the cat turn gently. Because it is so light, it will not weigh down even the thinnest tips of the tree. It works just as well away from the tree: tie it to a garland along the mantelpiece, a wreath on an inside door, a cupboard knob or a curtain tieback. The red, white and green colours sit well with traditional decorations and bring a playful note to a simpler scheme.
The cat is cut from wood and printed on each face, with the cord threaded through a small hole in its back. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp. Once the tree comes down, wrap it in tissue and store it flat with your other decorations. We like it tied to the ribbon of a wrapped present in place of a gift tag, or slipped inside a Christmas card as a little extra that can go straight onto the tree.
