Description
This Christmas tree decoration is a cheerful Santa figure, standing with a long letter unrolled in his hands as he reads it closely. He is dressed in white from his hat and long coat to his trousers, with softly textured trim at the hat, cuffs, front and hem, and a fine sparkle of glitter across his coat. His mittens and boots are picked out in gold glitter that catches the tree lights, while his rosy cheeks, white beard and gentle expression give him real character. He measures 11.8cm, a good size to stand out among the branches without crowding them, and he hangs from a small loop on top of his hat, threaded on a gold cord.
Hang him on the Christmas tree in the living room, where his white and gold suits a frosted, silver or champagne scheme as happily as a traditional red and green one. He looks just as at home on a garland draped along a mantelpiece, tied to a wreath on an inside door, or hooked over a few bare twigs in a vase on a hall table or sideboard. Place him at eye level, where his letter and his expression can be enjoyed up close.
His coat, beard and trim are finely detailed, and the gold glitter on his mittens and boots gives a warm shimmer. To keep him looking his best, dust him gently with a soft dry cloth, taking care around the glitter, and lift him by his body rather than the cord when you hang him. After Christmas, wrap him in tissue and store him in a box so his trim and sparkle stay crisp for years to come. We like him with plain white and gold baubles and warm white lights, which bring out the sparkle of his coat and the gold of his boots, and he makes a sweet finishing touch tied to a wrapped present.
