Christmas can be a magical time of year, bringing out the inner child in all of us. Whether it is decorating the tree, unwrapping presents with the family or eating a few too many celebrations from the sweet tub, this time of year is always perfect for feeling nostalgic. Nostalgia can be seen in Claire Fletcher’s lightweight Tree Angel. With her work being based around vintage illustrations of British holiday destinations, Claire brings back an age time forgot. Each Angel is hand painted and constructed with vintage fabrics and ribbons, personally picked by Claire, making each piece one of a kind. As they are lightweight they are ideal to put on top of the Christmas tree. When it is easy to feel over burdened with to-do lists in preparation for the big day, a few nostalgic pieces can remind us to step back and see how joyful this time of year can be. Available along with other covetable gifts from the Selvedge Shop. If you are interested in beautifully made and originally designed treasures, why not visit the Selvedge Artisan Christmas fair next weekend?
