Celtic knots are if not fashion then a way of life certainly and its importance is utmost at the time of Christmas and the preparations. Celtic knots have become a culture that we are indeed proud of. Knots could be simple and complex too but whichever way you make them their elegance is for all to see and admire.

Santa Claus

Candles

It wouldn’t be hard for Celtic knot fans to imagine that on Christmas your candle stand be decorated with Celtic motifs highlighted with dark blue surroundings? The use of golden

metallic threads could infuse really attractive looks on a simple candle pattern or candle stand. I think you can imagine one right now.

Christmas angels

Angels can be of different designs some standing alone whilst others in groups. The angel looks pretty alone and in-group too and can be bought in various sizes as desired leading upto a full wall sized figure. To sum up in short the bigger the size the better it looks as the intricate details with they are made shine like bright sunshine covering snow hilltop. Here I would like to add that if you are a first timer then small starting would be the way to build your angel.

Lavender laces

Is there ever a British woman who hasn’t fallen in love with lavenders? We have that fragrance in our bath soaps, our shampoos, deodorants, perfumes, room fresheners and ever more. So no surprise that we find something familiar in our embroidery designs. Wouldn’t it look graceful if lavender were to adorn our napkins, curtain pallets etc.
