Description
This striped glass Christmas tree decoration is a round bauble of clear glass, wrapped in broad swirling stripes of powder blue. Each stripe has a soft, frosted finish, and between them run fine lines of blue glitter that catch the light as the tree twinkles. We like how the clear glass in between lets the branches and fairy lights show through, so the bauble looks light and airy rather than heavy. It measures 8cm across, a good size for a standard tree, and is topped with a gold-tone cap, a small wire loop and a fine gold cord for hanging.
It suits a tree dressed in cool, wintry shades of blue, silver and white, or a soft pastel scheme where the powder blue sits happily beside pinks and creams. Hang it near the front at eye level, where the swirl of stripes and glitter can be seen up close, or tie it to a garland, a wreath or a bare branch arrangement on the mantelpiece for a quieter festive touch. It also makes a thoughtful Christmas gift for anyone who likes to add a special bauble to their tree each year, wrapped in a little tissue paper.
The bauble is made of glass, so it is best handled with care and hung from a sturdy branch where it will not knock against its neighbours. The gold-tone cap sits neatly at the top, and the wire loop takes the cord, ready to tie over a branch or slip onto a hook. To keep it looking its best, dust it gently with a soft dry cloth, taking care not to rub the glitter lines, and store it wrapped in tissue in a padded box once the decorations come down. Come next December, it will be ready to bring that soft blue swirl back to your tree for another season.
