Christmas Wreath - Gingerbread Men -22 in pine wreath - hand-made gingers, dried citrus - homespun wrapped cinnamon sticks and rusty bells
Designed and created in my mountain workshop especially for winter and winter holidays. Each little ginger has its own personality. I created each ginger using muslin which was stained with my coffee and spice mixture. I used a variety of homespun for scarves, aprons, ribbons and other embellishments. Some are wearing coordinating mini buttons and/or rusty bells and safety pins.
The primary ribbon is made from a large check burgundy homespun adorned with a slice of dried orange and a tiny rusty bell. I wove the tail of the ribbon through the upper part of the wreath. I used a large check green homespun and small check mustard homespun to wrap cinnamon stick bundles and to make bows for 30mm rusty bells. I filled in with some 20mm rusty bells and some hand painted wooden gingers. There is a great deal of detailed handwork involved in the creation of this charming little wreath.
This one was such a pleasure to create. I hope you enjoy exploring all the intricacies of the piece.
The wreath will be shipped in a custom created box which includes pillars for extra support throughout reducing the chance of bending or crushing. That being said, this is a very sturdy design, all pieces have been glued and wired to the wreath and it is created from elements which are quite durable and difficult to damage even under relatively extreme conditions.
