SIMPLE STAR TREE TOPPER

French knitted string and wire hand-sculpted star to sit proudly upon your Christmas tree.

This was the first tree topper I ever made, and it's the product that set me off on this string odyssey.

Coil Size

I like a coil that fits snugly around the leader branch. All my tree toppers are available with either a standard coil (still formed round the handle of a wooden spoon) or a large 2cm coil.

• Standard (1cm diameter) – fits most real trees and narrower artificial trees
• Wide (2cm diameter) – better for fuller or larger artificial trees

Size

21cm × 21cm × 1cm (30cm total length including coil)
Works well on large trees, or as a statement piece on medium-sized trees.

Fixing

Twist the wire coil around the leader branch—think of it as plaiting them together.

Materials

Natural cotton string from James Lever Factory, Bolton, UK (manufacturing twine since 1870). Slight colour variations and flecks are part of the charm.

Sustainability

Plastic-free, minimal packaging, all materials can be reused, composted, or widely recycled.

My stars are all handmade so sizes are approximate
