Welcome to Wintergreen Design. Each ornament makes a perfectly unique gift for teachers, hostess presents, present topper, favor, stocking stuffer, secret Santa gift, etc.

All the ornaments you see in my shop were designed, created and assembled by me often taking several hours to complete.

The photographs do not really do justice to the ornaments. You really need to see and hold them to appreciate them fully.

Quilling, or paper filigree, is an intricate art form over 500 years old. Quilling originated in European religious orders where they used strips of paper resembling metal filigree in their reliquaries. The pieces are created by rolling narrow strips of paper into various shapes, and arranging them together to form a unique design. Although quilling appears delicate and ornate, it is amazingly sturdy. That being said, the ornaments are made of paper and proper care should be taken... they are not toys, the ornaments arms, legs, etc., are not meant to move and trying to manipulate them into different positions will cause them to break or unravel, as will a very hard fall to the floor. They are also not water or fire tolerant and proper care should be taken when hanging around hot Christmas lights or open flames.

Most items reflect "1" in stock. If you wish to purchase more than one please convo me and I will be happy to change the listing for you. Each complete order of ornaments will be placed in a single gift box for shipping, should you wish to have each individual ornament gift wrapped I will be happy to do so for a small fee of $4.00 per box (which will include a gift box, tissue paper, fabric ribbon and hand quilled gift tag) and extra shipping... please convo me to set up a custom listing for gift wrapping.

Commisioned works are paid in advance, and are priced individually plus a 15% fee.

Each quilled ornament is an original design handmade by me. The photographs or designs are not to be published, photographed, or reproduced without my prior knowledge and permission.
