Make the countdown to Christmas a little more creative with this botanical Advent embroidery kit, designed to be stitched one flower at a time throughout December.
A beautiful alternative to a traditional Advent calendar, this slow-stitching project invites you to embroider a small flower onto the botanical Christmas tree each day of Advent. As Christmas approaches, the printed floral tree gradually becomes decorated with soft, dimensional embroidered blooms.
The design brings together two of Contempfleury’s favourite things: pressed flowers and tactile embroidery. The botanical tree has been created using flowers originally pressed in a traditional flower press, while the embroidered details introduce a wonderfully soft, textural contrast to the delicate floral imagery.
Rather than completing the whole embroidery in one sitting, the kit is intended to become a gentle daily Christmas ritual – a few quiet moments of making during what can otherwise be a very busy time of year.
By Christmas, you’ll have created your own botanical embroidered artwork to keep as part of your festive decorations, making this an Advent calendar that doesn't simply disappear once December is over.
Perfect for lovers of embroidery, botanical crafts, pressed flowers, slow living and handmade Christmas traditions, it would also make a thoughtful early Christmas gift for someone who enjoys creative projects.
