Kræmmerhus – Christmas decoration – Edith Hansen (EH)

"Kræmmerhus" (Cornet) - Christmas decoration - Edith Hansen (EH) is a decorative embroidery design in cross stitch with a simple and graphic motif. Small, round flowers in red and pink shades are distributed across the surface. The delicate stems give the motif a light and lively character.

The design works with repetition and variation. The round shapes create rhythm, while the interplay of colours adds depth. The simple expression makes the embroidery calm to look at, while the warm tones create a clear visual impact.

The light background highlights the flowers and gives a clean expression. The red border at the top ties the design together and creates a clear finish. The cornet shape adds a functional dimension to the embroidery.

The embroidery is stitched in cross stitch on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen fabric 10B using Danish Flower Thread. The materials ensure an even stitch definition and clear colours. The texture of the linen supports the simple motif and provides a refined surface.

As a Christmas decoration, the cornet can be used in several ways. It can hang from a branch, a Christmas tree or be part of a decorative arrangement. The shape also makes it suitable for small gifts or as a decorative detail in the home.

The design is especially suited to festive occasions but can be used throughout the year. The simple motif makes it easy to combine with other embroidery designs, while it also works well on its own as a small decorative object.
