Made for people who want to decorate for Christmas without filling the tree with mass-produced plastic, these are decorations to keep, bring out each December and eventually become part of your family's Christmas traditions.

These three Australian wildflower baubles begin with reclaimed timber and a paintbrush. Each one features an original watercolour, painted by hand and mounted onto timber that has been given another use.

The set includes flowering gum, grevillea and Geraldton wax, painted in loose watercolour with warm pinks, reds and soft eucalyptus greens. Each flower is individually painted, so the small variations in colour and brushwork are part of what makes every set unique.

The natural timber remains visible around the artwork, forming a simple frame, while a cotton cord is used for hanging. From the decoration itself to the cord, the set is 100% plastic-free.

A note about the watercolour

The paintings are intentionally left unsealed to preserve the brightness of the pigments and the beautiful white, textured surface of the watercolour paper. These decorations are intended for indoor use and should be kept away from water and moisture.z

A thoughtful Australian-made Christmas gift for someone who values original art, natural materials and things made to be kept rather than thrown away.
