Star Hanging Felt Christmas Tree Decoration - White & Blue

This felt Christmas tree decoration is a six-pointed star in soft white felt, stitched along every point with branching lines of dark blue embroidery that look like little sprigs. A ring of blue stitching frames the centre around a smaller star of its own, tiny gold stitches dot the edges of each point, and small flecks of green sit where the points meet. It hangs from a twisted red and white cord and measures 14cm high, 7.5cm wide and 2cm deep, a comfortable size to read on the branch without crowding the ornaments around it.

White and blue is a cool, wintry pairing, so this star sits naturally on a frosted or white tree, or among silver and blue baubles, while the red in its cord lets it settle just as happily onto a traditional red and green scheme. Its cord hangs it from a branch in moments, and it works away from the tree too: tie it to a wreath or a garland, hang it from a cupboard knob or a door handle, or add it to a bare twig arrangement on a mantelpiece. As a small Christmas gift, it is lovely tied onto the ribbon of a wrapped present, where it gives the person opening it a decoration to keep long after the paper has gone.

The star is made from felt and finished with embroidery, and at 2cm deep its points have a soft, rounded fullness, so it brings a gentle texture to the tree. To look after it, dust it lightly with a soft dry cloth, and at the end of the season wrap it in tissue paper and store it in a dry box, where the felt keeps its shape and the stitching stays uncrushed. When the tree goes up again, hang it near a string of warm white lights, where the gold stitches pick up the glow.
