Cotton macrame, made in Indonesia

This wall hanging is made from cotton in a macrame style, using knotted texture to form the angel shape. It comes from Indonesia, where the phrase ‘Hati-Hati’ is commonly used to mean ‘take care’, a fitting thought for a piece made to sit near a child’s space.

Where to place it

Hang it indoors in a bedroom, nursery or hallway, or use it as a small decorative piece on a wardrobe knob, door handle or seasonal tree. If placing it near a baby or young child, keep it securely hung and out of reach, as it is a decorative wall hanging rather than a toy.

The meaning behind the angel

Guardian angel imagery is often used in Christian and wider cultural settings as a symbol of care, watchfulness and blessing. For a new baby, it carries a gentle message: that the child is loved, looked after and held in thought. Given at a christening, naming ceremony or first visit, it becomes less about decoration alone and more about marking the beginning of a life with tenderness.

A thoughtful new baby gift
