Galah on a Christmas Stocking
A cheerful pink‑and‑grey galah perches proudly on the cuff of a bright Christmas stocking, looking as though it’s claimed the whole thing as its holiday roost. Its soft rose‑coloured chest feathers puff out like a tiny festive jumper, while the smooth grey wings fold neatly at its sides. The galah’s expressive crest lifts in a playful little flare, giving the whole scene a spark of personality and mischief.
The stocking beneath it is classic and cosy — deep red with gentle stitching details, maybe a sprig of eucalyptus or a tiny star stitched near the heel to tie it into your signature Aussie‑Christmas style. The galah leans forward slightly, curious and delighted, as if it’s guarding the treasures tucked inside or waiting to see who the stocking belongs to.
The whole motif feels joyful, bright, and unmistakably Australian — a perfect blend of festive charm and native character, ideal for beginners, young stitchers, and anyone who loves a touch of whimsy in their Christmas designs.Paint sold separately.

- Check the paint type – If you used fabric paint, it should be washable. If it's acrylic or another type, it may require extra care.
- Spot test – Dab a small, hidden area with water and mild soap to ensure the paint doesn’t bleed.
- Hand wash gently – Use cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid scrubbing directly on the painted areas.
- Rinse thoroughly – Make sure no soap residue remains.
- Air dry – Lay flat in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
