About this Product
This unique handmade Christmas tree ornament is perfect for anyone who loves their leather. Show some pride with this beautiful, vibrant handmade Christmas ornament.
This artisan ornament is perfect for Pride month or to add sparkle to your Christmas tree. Best of all Holidays Lane is a gay owned small business who makes all these ornaments by hand! This ornament has a cute retro / nostalgic feel to it but still looks great on a modern tree.
The 2 inch Styrofoam ball is wrapped in shimmering hand placed sequins with clear glass seed beads and silver sequin pins. Sequins are in the colors of the leather pride flag - black, white and blue and a sparkly red heart sequin. The top has a round clasp for the hanger of your choice.
The leather pride flag is a symbol used by the leather subculture since the 1990s. It was designed by Tony DeBlase, and was quickly embraced by the gay leather community. It has since become associated with leather in general and also with related groups such as the BDSM community. DeBlase has said he had no specific symbolism in mind when he designed the Leather Pride flag. He preferred that individuals or the community assign their own interpretation, symbolism and meanings to the flag.
Over the years, this has happened. One common symbolism attached to the Leather Pride flag is this: the black is for black leather; the blue is for blue denim; the white stripe in the middle is for integrity; and the red heart symbolizes love. Other interpretations of the flag’s white stripe include symbolizing purity, safety, and solidarity with novices in the BDSM scene. Other interpretations of the red heart include symbolizing respect, understanding, and consent.

Holidays Lane
Meet the Maker
Hi. I'm Bill Mason. I started Holidays Lane in 2018 with the idea that every day is a holiday. Christmas is always a special time for me. The magic of decorating the tree, turning off all other lights and experiencing the ambiance is the high point of the holiday. My absolute favorite ornaments are the "ones my grandma made" with sparkly sequins, ribbon, pins & beads. They weren't always perfect... but that’s what made them special.
Trees for other holidays like Valentine's Day, Independence Day, Halloween, LGBTQ Pride, and Easter have gained in popularity with folks now leaving their trees up all year long just swapping out the ornaments. So I also started a design inspiration blog at https://holidayslane.blog/ and have a Facebook group All Holidays Tree Decorating so everyone can share their holiday trees with community members.
Each of my ornaments and decorative eggs are meticulously hand crafted - one tiny bead at a time - by me. There isn't a factory involved. Is it time-consuming, yes. But I really enjoy the tactile process of creating each ornament. So whether I'm using carefully curated ribbons & adorable toppers, or individually placed Czech glass beads with color coordinated sequins on a satin-wrapped foam shape, each is truly unique. My decorative eggs are versatile, either displayed in groupings in a bowl as though a very glam Easter bunny left them for you, or as an ornament for an Easter Tree. These sparkling beauties could also double as a Christmas ornament sparkling from the lights of your tree.
When I am at local craft fairs, I always overhear peoples memories triggered by my ornaments. Many say they remember making these types of ornaments with their mom, grandmother or aunt. Frequently it's a family affair with siblings all competing for the prettiest ornament. So that inspired me to create my DIY sequin kits. Each kit comes with easy-to-follow instructions & hand drawn pictures taking you step by step through the process of creating your own special ornament or Easter egg. And whether you decide to keep it for yourself and showcase your handiwork on your family tree or decide to present it as a gift to a special person in your life who knows that you thoughtfully selected an ornaments and hand-make it just for them - it's a fabulous gift!
I hope that these ornaments and decorative items find a special place in your home and you will be able to hand them down to your family too.
Thank you for visiting me on the lane... Where Every Day is a Holiday
