Christmas holidays are a time when you especially want to give, share and multiply warmth and joy. We find our joy in what we do — in aesthetics and design.
We developed this project with the thought of the durability of the Ukrainian tradition, the desire to pay tribute to the illustrators and designers of the past, and most importantly — to share with as many people as possible our admiration for Ukrainian fine art.

Happy Holidays!
The sun still sleeps, not out of bed,
The forest is dark, it fills one with dread.
But look at the children, though little they be,
They’ll find their way in the world, you’ll see.
Howdy, friend, as you hit the slopes!
May your tumbles be fun and filled with hopes.
Wishing you laughter, snow, and cheer,
And a soft landing for the New Year!
Though Darkness still her empire keep,
And hours must pass, ere morning break;
From troubled dreams, or slumbers deep,
That music kindly bids us wake:
It calls us, with an angel’s voice,
To wake, and worship, and rejoice;
The tree’s still standing — what a surprise!
With a watchful cat and sparkling eyes.
Wishing you laughter, warmth, and cheer,
A purr-fect Christmas and a Happy New Year!
May good cheer wrap you warm and tight,
Like scarves and blankets on a winter night.
With joy in your heart and peace in the air,
Merry Christmas to you, with love to share!
A snowy roof, a chimney’s glow,
Wishing you peace where love may flow.
Merry Christmas to you, simple and true,
With warmth and blessings the whole year through.
With trumpets and fiddles, carols and cheer,
We send best wishes for Christmas this year.
May music and laughter fill your days,
And joy light your path in wondrous ways.
This Christmas, may your spirits cheer,
Like this grinning, antlered deer.
No reindeer games or holiday flops —
Just laughter, joy, and minty props!
Cookies, cocoa, and jingle delights,
A buck-load of fun on frosty nights.
May your season be merry, your year be clear,
From this cheeky, smiling holiday deer!
May your holidays sparkle with colors so bright,
Like polka dots dancing in festive delight.
With timeless wisdom and joy to bring,
Here’s to a season that makes your heart sing!
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight –
“Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
Before the ice is in the pools —
Before the skaters go,
Or any check at nightfall
Is tarnished by the snow —
Before the fields have finished,
Before the Christmas tree,
Wonder upon wonder
Will arrive to me!
With hearty Christmas greetings, we wish you joy,
A season of peace for each girl and boy.
May your days be bright, your hearts be light,
And love surrounds you through this winter’s night.
Through the X-ray, Santa’s clear,
He’s full of joy and holiday cheer!
May your bones feel strong, your heart aglow,
With love and laughter in the snow!
From the pages of stories, a wish takes flight,
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a bright night!
May your year turn chapters of laughter and cheer,
With joy on each page and a brilliant New Year!
With wings of light and a halo so bright,
May your holidays glow with joy and delight.
From heaven above to your cozy space,
Wishing you peace, love, and a warm embrace!
