Holiday Kitchen and Baking
Bring the holidays into the heart of the home. These watercolor designs are made to be used: 100% cotton flour sack tea towels printed in the USA, 15 oz mugs for cocoa season, and recipe cards for the cookies that only come out in December.
Bring a little old-fashioned Christmas charm into the kitchen. This tea towel has red and green candy cane stripes filled with tiny wreaths, golden bells, holly and candy canes. Across the bottom, a lace-trimmed band tied with a red bow reads “’Tis the Season to Be Merry” in cross-stitch lettering, framed by two little hearts.
Hang it on the oven door for the season, use it to dry the cookie trays, or wrap it around a loaf of homemade bread or a jar of cocoa for a hostess gift that will get used every December. Made from heavy 100% cotton flour sack and printed in the USA, it’s soft, absorbent and generously sized at 19" x 28", lovely on display and hardworking on cookie-baking day.
It matches the rest of the cross-stitch Christmas collection. Pair it with the Christmas recipe cards for a baker’s gift, or wrap it in the matching wrapping paper.
Designed from an original watercolor painting in our Portland-area studio.

Some recipes only come out once a year. These Christmas recipe cards give the sugar cookies, the fudge and Grandma's famous rolls a home worth keeping. A cross-stitch "Recipe" title sits inside a lace doily frame tied with a red bow, bordered by candy cane stripes, tiny wreaths and a little Christmas tree. On the back, a watercolor rolling pin tops the lined directions.
Each card has space for the title, notes, prep and total time, ingredients in two columns, and plenty of lines for directions. Start a holiday recipe collection, fill them out for your cookie exchange, or tuck one into a tin of homemade treats so friends can make them too. A set tied with ribbon makes a sweet hostess gift or stocking stuffer for the baker in your family.
They're designed from original watercolor paintings in our Portland-area studio. For a matching look, pair them with the 'Tis the Season to Be Merry Christmas card.

These Christmas recipe cards are lined with watercolor holiday desserts: a fruitcake, gelatin molds on glass cake stands, figgy pudding, coconut cake and a candy cane cake along the bottom, with linzer cookies, thumbprints and gingerbread stars up top. On the back, a Yule log, trifle and panettone frame the directions.
Write down Grandma’s fudge before it’s lost, fill out a card for every cookie at the cookie exchange, or tuck one into a tin of treats so friends can bake them too. A set tied with baker’s twine makes a sweet stocking stuffer or hostess gift.
Pair them with the matching Vintage Christmas Desserts tea towel for a baker’s gift set.
