This 3-dimensional hanging ornament brings traditional elegance hung on a Christmas tree or from a window. It is the perfect little gift tucked into a greeting card - you can include the ornament as a gift without spending any additional postage! Simply open up the sides and gently crease the fold, it folds flat again for storage year after year.

Scherenschnitte, or, "scissor cuts" in German, is the art of paper cutting design. The art tradition was founded in Switzerland and Germany in the 16th century and was brought to Colonial America in the 18th century by Swiss and German immigrants who settled primarily in Pennsylvania. My Scherenschnitte ornaments are completely cut by hand - no laser cutting! Each ornament is made up of two identical cuttings which are machine stitched together in the center - when folded out - the ornament becomes 3-dimensional. The three designs: “Tree of Life”, “Angels Rejoicing” and "Valentine Heart" are traditional German patterns.
*Each ornament is packaged on a rich red or deep green card with an explanation about Scherenschnitte and then enclosed in a cello sleeve.
*The package measures 7” x 5.5”
*The ornaments measure 4” x 4”
*Each ornament is available in either natural parchment paper, or light gray parchment paper

Your Scherenschnitte will be mailed in an envelope, packaged individually in cello sleeves, ready for gift giving. A unique, handmade “one of a kind” sweet gift to cheer the soul! (For yourself or someone you love!)
