Twelfth Night Paint Inlay (IOD) Iron Orchid Designs- 12x16 Pad

Deck the halls with the most evocative holiday collection in the IOD Paint Inlay lineup. The Twelfth Night IOD Paint Inlay by Iron Orchid Designs is an 8-sheet celebration of Victorian Christmas in a rich palette of forest green, deep red, and warm black-and-white engraving tones. Stately stags and leaping reindeer, lush holly-and-ribbon garland borders, a towering fir tree, vintage Christmas typography, Baroque apothecary cartouches, and a majestic Winter Eucalyptus & Berries medallion — every sheet is a gift in itself.

Imagine a dark-painted hutch transformed into a Victorian Christmas cabinet: its sides wrapped in continuous holly-and-red-ribbon garland borders, its doors dressed in the Christmas Comes But Once a Year stag scene, its drawers accented with Joyeux Noël gift labels and Tidings of Joy typography panels, and its crown anchored by the grand Winter Eucalyptus & Berries medallion. Twelfth Night makes that vision achievable — and because the pigment stays active until sealed, every piece you create will be as unique as the season itself.
