Description
This velvet bow Christmas tree decoration adds a soft, generous shape to the branches in a pale duck egg blue. It measures about 17cm tall, 15cm wide and 4cm deep, a size that shows up well among baubles. Two plump, padded loops sit either side of a neat gathered knot, and two long tails fall below, cut on a slant at the ends. The velvet has a gentle sheen that catches the light from the tree, and the reverse of the tails is a soft cream, a quiet detail you notice when the bow turns.
A clip on the back of the knot means there is no ribbon or hook to fiddle with: open it, slip it over a branch and let it close. That makes it easy to place exactly where the tree needs filling, near the top as a soft alternative to a star, or dotted through the branches alongside baubles. The pale blue suits a tree dressed in silver, white and soft pastels, and it sits well on a frosted or natural green tree. Beyond the tree, the clip holds on a garland along the mantelpiece or the edge of a wreath. As a Christmas gift, it is an easy, thoughtful choice for anyone who likes a gentle, romantic look to their festive decorating.
The bow is made of velvet with a smooth, short pile, and its loops have a plump, padded look. To keep it looking its best, brush it lightly with a soft, dry cloth to lift any dust, and keep the velvet away from water. When the season ends, store it near the top of your decorations box rather than under heavier ornaments, so the loops keep their shape for the following Christmas. We like it clipped wherever a branch looks a little bare, or to the ribbon on a wrapped present for a final flourish.
