"Beauty" Snowflake Gift Ornament 2011

$19.95

This design's title is "Beauty".  The inspiration for this design began as we contemplated the beauty of an ornate stained glass window installed in the East facade of a large cathedral.  We wondered if there was a way to create, in white bisque porcelain, this same effect if various brightly colored and shiny Christmas glass ball ornaments were hung behind this design?  We think so!   And so it is with our lives, as we considered the majesty and beauty of God's Light of the World, Jesus Christ,  shining through our relatively plain lives, our prayer was that perhaps we too could demonstrate to any who may happen to gaze upon us, His Beauty.

This is the eighth (8th) snowflake gift ornament in our annual collection.  After the original art was conceived, sketched, and then drafted, each symmetrical angle, each ray, each point, and each open triangle in this design was hand sculpted, one-at-the-time, as was every other detail of this snowflake.  Each piece of porcelain is gently coaxed from one step to another in the hand-crafting process as it gradually takes shape, being refined into its final image over the course of a few days, many loving hands, and a large dose of heat!  

The package has a background geometric repeating pattern faintly below the typographical information unique to all of our snowflake gift ornament designs.  Each package box has a scripture hidden under the front flap . . . a surprise gift to the recipient . . . that says "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. - Ephesians 2:8" 

This Snowflake Gift Ornament is titled “Beauty”.    The poetry on back of package box  says: "Blessings from above reminding us that our time with those nearest to our heart passes as quickly as a snowflake melts in our hands."    The Scripture on side of package box says "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above. - James 1:17"   The Backstamp for this design is "Beauty  @2011" .   This snowflake gift ornament measures 4″ diameter and has Item# SF411.   And inside each box is a "missionary card" that extends an invitation to a relationship with God through his Son Jesus Christ with links to further information to help in the journey of faith that begins with an understanding of His great love and our great need.

The acrylic and porcelain stands are available as optional additional items to enhance your collection and presentation and are not included with this item.

This larger "gift ornament" has a tie tack pin backing system which accomplishes two main objectives:

1.  To affix the item securely in its gift package

2.  To permit creative visual display with ribbons, bows, package ties, streamers, display stands, and other techniques which may not otherwise be possible without the tie tack affixed to the back of the ornament.   

The tie tack and related pin backing are not noticed when the item is used in a traditional Christmas tree presentation.
