St. Nick’s Berry

St. Nick's Berry - linen and silk

St. Nick's Berry

Everyone’s favorite jolly elf in his work clothes - buffalo plaid shirt, green jeans and boots. He sports a large “believe” banner on the linen berry; on the silk berry he is surrounded by lots of holiday details and a reminder to be jolly and believe!

St. Nick's Berry is sold as a “partner” chartpak, a format which includes instructions and charts for linen and silk berries.
