Winter decorations on the window sill in the nursery

Sticking eco snowflakes to the glass is definitely worth complementing with original window sill decorations! Last but not least, here is an idea for a charming winter decor that you can create literally in a few moments. Place the plant of your choice, such as a miniature live conifer or a DIY decoration based on a Styrofoam Christmas tree, in a decorative bag made of linen, cotton, or jute. Additionally, position a Santa Claus figurine on the windowsill and position a gift bag next to it (consider placing small gifts inside for the preschoolers; it will surely delight them!).

In the Christmas collection in the Saketos shop, you will find large bags with festive prints or plain cloth bags with a drawstring (the drawstring in the bag allows the package to be closed quickly and conveniently). The bag itself can also be decorated! We recommend using a red bow on a safety pin and decorative white snowflake star hangers.
