Nissestage - wall hanging - Ingrid Plum (IP)

"Nissestage" (Pixie Candlestick) - wall hanging - Ingrid Plum (IP) is an embroidery kit with a small and narrative Christmas motif. Two Pixies stand side by side on the light linen background. The larger Pixie holds a candlestick high above its head, while the smaller Pixie stands beside it.
The motif is simple and colourful. The red Pixie hats immediately create a Christmas atmosphere, while blue, green and golden shades add variation. The large light area around the figures keeps the design calm and clear.
The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The finished wall hanging measures 9 x 12 cm.

A Pixie holding the candlestick high

The large Pixie is the natural focal point of the motif. The figure is embroidered with a bright red hat and a dark blue outfit. The red legs add another warm touch of colour.
The Pixie holds one arm raised above its head. In its hand is a candlestick with several small lit candles. The golden flames stand out clearly and give the motif a warm and festive character.
The candlestick therefore becomes more than a small detail. It is the central element of the motif and explains the name Pixie Candlestick.
The simple shape of the figure suits the small format well. Just a few stitches are enough to create both movement and personality.

The little Pixie beside it

Beside the large Pixie stands a smaller figure. Here too, the characteristic red Pixie hat can be seen.
The small Pixie is dressed in green shades with darker details. The difference in size makes the interaction between the two figures clear and gives the motif a small story.
It almost looks as though the little Pixie is following along while the larger one carries the light ahead. The motif does not tell the whole story, and that is part of its charm. You can imagine for yourself where the two are heading.

A small Christmas motif with light and warmth

Pixie Candlestick has a simple motif with only a few elements. There is no large Christmas setting around the figures. Instead, the focus is entirely on the Pixies and the lit candlestick.
This gives the wall hanging a calm expression. At the same time, the golden candles create a clear connection to December, dark winter evenings and the lit candles of Christmas.
The colours are classic without feeling heavy. Red, blue and green bring the motif to life, while the golden details add warmth.
The finished wall hanging measures 9 x 12 cm. This makes it suitable for a small wall, a gallery wall or as part of a collection of other small Christmas embroideries.

Danish Flower Thread on linen 10B

The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread. The matte surface of the thread gives the clear Christmas colours a soft and textile expression.
The fabric is Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The light background provides good contrast with the figures and highlights the small details in the outfits, hats and candlestick.
The small format makes the project manageable. At the same time, there is variation between the two figures and the fine details of the candlestick.
