Looking for something different to deck your halls with this year? I’ve got you covered. Let’s begin with the Danish “nisse” or elf clutching a polar bear claw.

More nisser (plural with the ‘r’), but this time sitting inside sections of whale spine – found on the beach.

Iceberg water colour paintings, whale cartilage (discs), and Siberian nisser made in FIMO clay, and blue stones from Illorsuit! 😉

And one more nisse nestled in a coiled dog whip made of sealskin.

You didn’t know you needed any of these decorations, but now you’re thinking “oh, if only…”.

I feel your pain. The dog whip rotted as soon as we moved back to Denmark. “Oh, the humidity!”
