Welcome to Wintergreen Design! Each of the Christmas ornaments, home décor and wedding items you see in my shop are made entirely of paper! Because everything is made to order everything can be adjusted to meet your color schemes, preferences and wedding themes. Thank you for visiting Wintergreen Design. I'm glad you stopped by!

All the ornaments you see in my shop were designed, created and assembled by me from start to finish 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. The ornaments are very light in weight and will not pull down your Christmas tree branches.

Paper 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's actually quite sturdy. That being said, the ornaments are made of paper and proper care should be taken... they are not toys, the ornament's 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.

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

Wholesale orders are available. Please contact me for further information.
