The character is designed not only for its charm but also for versatility. You can select how you want your gingerbread finished off through a convenient drop-down menu, ensuring it fits your preferred use perfectly:
- Fridge Magnet – A magnetic strip on the back allows you to attach the gingerbread to any metal surface: refrigerators, boilers, memo boards, or magnetic whiteboards, adding a pop of personality to functional spaces.
- Hanging Decoration – Finished with a matching ribbon, this option lets you easily place your figure on Christmas trees, walls, door knobs, window latches, or anywhere that could use a dash of whimsy and colour.
- Keyring – Featuring a split ring and coordinating ribbon, this option transforms the gingerbread into a portable piece of art that you can carry with your keys, backpack, handbag, or even use as a zipper pull.
- Plain – For those who prefer a more understated look, this version comes without any attachments and works beautifully as a bookmark, a framed keepsake, or a unique embellishment glued onto hand-made greeting cards and scrapbooks.
This choice ensures the gingerbread character is not just a decoration, but a functional accessory adaptable to your lifestyle.
When purchasing, you can select the colours for three main elements that bring the figure to life:
- The skirt
- The top
- The knitting detail
By choosing these colours, you not only tailor the figure to your own style or that of a loved one but also create a more personal connection to the item that reflects the recipient’s favourite colours. Just add your preferences to the boxes at checkout.

Place her hanging in the living room window, clipped to your craft bag, or perched on a bookshelf alongside your knitting supplies. Her quirky charm and the story she tells about the joy of knitting make her a fresh alternative to standard holiday décor.
