When most people think of ornaments, they imagine holiday trees, twinkling lights, and seasonal décor. But at Cheryl Zapata Art, our ornaments are designed for year-round beauty. Each piece is more than a seasonal accent — it’s a miniature work of art that can bring joy, meaning, and style into everyday life.
Here are some of our favorite creative ways to enjoy ornaments all year long:
🌿 1. Dress Up a Planter
A touch of art among your greenery can make a plant feel special. Hanging an ornament on a succulent or leafy planter adds character and transforms an ordinary pot into a conversation piece.
🍷 2. The Perfect Hostess Gift
Skip the generic wine bag. Tie an ornament around a bottle of wine or olive oil for an unforgettable presentation. It’s a double gift — something to enjoy now and something to treasure later.
💡 3. Lamp Décor & Pulls
Add charm to everyday lighting by tying an ornament onto a lamp. It works beautifully as a decorative pull, or simply as an accent that catches the eye whenever the lamp is turned on.
🪞 4. Furniture & Cabinet Charms
Give a vintage cabinet, dresser, or hutch a touch of artistry by hanging an ornament from a drawer pull or knob. This subtle detail instantly personalizes furniture and ties a room’s theme together.
🎁 5. Gift Tags with Heart
Instead of a disposable paper tag, use an ornament as the “tag” on a wrapped present. Write the recipient’s name on the back, and they’ll have a keepsake to remember your gift long after the wrapping paper is gone.
✨ 6. Seasonal Yet Timeless
Of course, ornaments shine on trees during the holidays — but by embracing them as year-round art, you create small daily reminders of beauty, meaning, and place. Each design — from coastal birds to watercolor florals — carries the warmth of hand-painted originality.
