Description
This is a set of two Christmas decorations in felted wool: a pair of mice dressed in red, one as Father Christmas and the other as Mrs Claus. He wears a trimmed suit with a belt and buckle and a long pointed hat finished with a bobble. She wears a long dress, a lace-trimmed apron, a frilled cap and a pair of fine wire spectacles. Both have felted faces, large rounded ears and long tails, and each hangs from its own striped string. They measure 11cm long, 10cm wide and 23cm tall, a generous size for tree decorations, so they hold their own on a branch rather than disappearing among the baubles.
They are made for hanging: on the Christmas tree, from a bare branch in a vase on the mantelpiece, or from a window catch or a cupboard knob in the hallway or kitchen. As a couple they work best hung close together at eye level, where they read as a pair and the small details, the spectacles and the apron lace, can be seen. They suit anyone who likes a tree with character. They also make a thoughtful gift for a friend who adds to their decorations every year, or for a couple marking their first Christmas in their own home.
The material is 100% wool with a felted finish, and the filling is 100% polyester. Felted wool has a soft, slightly fuzzy surface that gives these figures their cosy look up close. Care is simple: spot clean only, with no tumble drying and no ironing, so a gentle dab with a damp cloth is the most they need. The weight given is 0.05KG, so they sit lightly on a slim branch. Hang them against greenery, where the red reads at its warmest, and give each its own spot so the hats, ears and tails hang freely.
