HYGGE CHRISTMAS

BEHIND THE PROJECT

TWO TURTLE DOVES

“The festive period is always a lovely time to get cosy and decorate your home with lovingly-made pieces. This Scandinavian-inspired wall hanging is just that, combining different elements that come together to create a mini Christmas tree. With a nod to mistletoe and turtle doves, plus a mini EPP star that goes on top of your ‘tree’, it has all the festive vibes but, in a fun, contemporary way!” – Yasmeen K Branton
