About this item
Cute hanging Christmas decoration, featuring Santa sleeping in bed on Christmas Eve, with the alarm clock ringing in his ear. Made with a scrap of vintage fabric, appliqued onto white and red wool felt, this little sign can be hung on a tree or hook, or even attached to a gift-wrapped present. Sent wrapped in tissue in a sturdy cardboard box, it's ideal for gifting by post or in person, or buying just for yourself. I found a small piece of this printed fabric in a bundle of vintage Christmas textile remnants, and carefully fussy-cut out each motif so I didn't waste a single scrap. I've paired it up with bright wool felt - blanket stitch machine-stitched to a white layer, and then sewn to the red, with a narrow white ribbon for hanging. The red felt is made by hand in Nepal, and is thicker than standard felt, giving the decoration a robust shape so it hangs nicely. Size: approx 2 inches by 3.5 inches (5cm by 8.5cm). Placement of Santa may vary a little in each decoration, depending on how I cut the remnant.
