Crescent Christmas Decorations

Crescent Christmas Decorations

Date: 2015-12-18
Come shop at The Crescent and see the amazing Reindeer in and around the shopping centre, they are beautifully crafted with meticulous detail.

The delightful artwork is thanks to Xtraordinary Creations. They have been in production for 16 years and are owned by Cosmo Mafoti, supported by 8 staff members each with a creative mind set.

Xtraordinary Creations have been designing and creating wire-beaded sculptures, such as the beaded Big 5, the wire Christmas Trees, wire key rings and much more, operating at the Avondale Spar's undercover parking area. We have approached Xtraordinary Creations previously for The Crescent's 'Rhino meets Reality' campaign, to create a life size rhino, and were absolutely impressed with the quality of their work. So much so that we had to afford them a second chance to manufacture our Christmas décor too. We wanted to encourage local employment and it was so fitting to receive such great service and creations from the 9 gentlemen who have taken so much pride and passion in their designs that it has grown into a successful business, manufacturing and supplying customers locally and internationally.

Come and visit the Centre and embrace the local art elements of our wire sculptures hung throughout the Centre, together with two Reindeers placed in the Centre for a festive feel.

There's so much more on offer, there will be loads of entertainment for the kids this festive season with stilt walkers, balloon sculptors face painters and Cartoon Characters, handing out sweet treats to the kiddies between the 17th and 24th December, from 13h00 and 18h00. Not forgetting, Pick n Pay's kiddies village will be displayed in the arcade for great fun activities for the little ones while you shop.
