Gingerbread man Christmas decoration in felt – dark red, 3–60 cm

It gets dark early outside, and indoors there's the smell of tea. And there's still room in the window for a classic Christmas motif. The dark red felt gingerbread man brings a classic Christmas motif into your home. It feels as if it were made for your Advent decorations: soft, richly coloured and in exactly the size you need. Small tags on a twig or a large motif in the window – you decide.

What changes for you

• Your Christmas decorations match. You choose each gingerbread man in 1 cm steps from 3 to 60 cm to suit your window, table or twig.
• You craft without fraying edges. The laser cut seals every edge cleanly.
• Simply put your mug or pot down on the larger sizes. The soft felt protects your tabletop like a coaster.
• When you make Christmas decorations with children or at your club, you have enough material for everyone. You can order them individually or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.
• You can decorate with them year after year. The felt keeps its shape and is approx. 2.5–3 mm thick. It even survives a season in a box in the loft.

Why this felt gingerbread man makes a difference every day

Advent and Christmas decorations rely on familiar motifs that feel warm without being overpowering. The dark red gingerbread man brings exactly this calm, familiar mood to your window, table or twig. You can combine it in any size, so one motif fits with the next. No need to search for matching decorations for ages. You have one motif that covers every size, from a small gift tag to a large window motif.

Material & finish

The gingerbread man is made of 100% polyester felt in dark red. It is soft in your hand, yet firm enough to hang upright on a thread or lie flat on the table. Every cutout is laser-cut in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia. This seals the edges, so they don't fray and feel neatly finished. That stays true even after lots of handling while crafting and decorating.
