Set of 3 Nutcracker and Dove Christmas Tree Decorations - Blue

These wooden star Christmas tree decorations bring a crisp blue and white look to the branches, and each of the three carries its own design. One is a white star printed with little nutcracker soldiers in blue and lilac, with sprigs of leaves and birds between them. Another is a white star covered in blue foliage and tiny flowers, with a dove tucked among them, and the third turns the colours around: a cobalt blue star printed in white with flowers, leaves and a dove. Each star measures 6cm across and is 0.4cm thick, a slim, flat shape that hangs neatly on the branches.

Hung together, the three designs make a matching set for a tree dressed in blue, white and silver, or they add a run of cool colour to a more traditional tree of reds and golds. They work just as well away from the tree: tie one to a door handle, a stair spindle or a wreath, add them to a garland along the mantelpiece, or hang them from bare branches in a vase on a side table. As a Christmas gift, they make a thoughtful addition to a festive parcel or a hamper.

Each star is made of wood and printed on the face, with a length of blue ribbon fixed at the top and tied in a bow, leaving a loop to hang it by, so there are no hooks to hunt for. To keep them looking their best, dust them with a soft dry cloth and keep them away from damp. When the season is over, wrap each star in tissue so the bows hold their shape, and store them flat in a box. When you put them up again, we suggest spacing the three designs around the tree rather than grouping them, so the white stars and the blue one balance each other across the branches.
