Tired of the traditional red and green Christmas decorations?  Looking for a fun alternative for this year's Christmas Party?  The Leaf Krystal Fabric would make a great table cloth.  The Yule Treeswould make a great table runner layered over the Leaf.  Feeling extra creative and thinking about making invitations and Christmas cards too? The Pillows & Maxfield Kiwi Curly Swirl and the Pink Crisscross fabric are not only festively fun, but they really pull all the colors together.  Bring in a splash of bright green with the Midori Kaffir 2" ribbon, and the Midori Red 1 1/2" ribbon.  The Candy Cane Stripes and the Candy Cane Bubbles would make great accents to party invitations or Christmas cards to tie the entire theme together!
 
 
 
 
 
Is Christmas your favorite time of year?  Do you start putting out decorations November 1st?  Do you get excited whenever you see red and green paired together in anticipation of this year's holiday season?  Match the deep green of our Moss Krystal  with the festive Gingerbread Men Twill Cotton Fabric.  Pair these two fabrics with the Black Christmas Trees and the Green/Red Reversible Satin Stitch Grosgrain Ribbon for a great traditional holiday feel.  Looking to take Christmas with you?  Make a festive key chain layering the Christmas Pinecone Gingerbread Man, Offray Forest Solid Grosgrain 7/8" and the Red Heavy Duty Cotton Webbing/Belting 1.25" and don't forget about your Fob Tips and Split Rings!
