Christmas Ornament

O’ Christmas Tree
The Magic Of The Christmas Ornament
It’s funny how naked a Christmas tree looks without any sort of
ornamentation. Having a Christmas tree in your house without
decorating it is like having a Barbie you don’t dress- stupid.
Christmas ornaments are a tradition as old as the Christmas tree
itself. For generations people have been decking their halls and
their trees with all different kinds of baubles, ornaments, bulbs,
lights, and garland. Seeing a Christmas tree without Christmas
ornaments is horrifying, and should be reserved for mature audiences
only!
No child should have to spend Christmas
without some sort of Christmas ornament hanging from the Christmas
tree. What sort of ornament should you have? Well, here is a list
that I have compiled containing information on some of the Christmas
ornaments you chose for your tree.
Family Heirloom Christmas Ornaments
There are some families that have very special Christmas ornaments
that have been passed down from generation to generation. Some were
made by hand by a relative. Some were a very special gift to a loved
one. Some were just special to the person. No matter what the
reason, family heirloom Christmas ornaments always hold a special
place on the Christmas tree, and in the hearts of the family
members. There are some heirloom ornaments that are hand woven lace
creations, some are cast in some kind of precious metal, and some
are made of wood- carved into a celebrated Christmas character. For
every heirloom ornament there is a story; there is some reason why
an ornament has been in the family for years. If you have such an
ornament, cherish it. Someday, you too will pass this ornament down
to someone you love.
Handmade Christmas Ornaments
For those of you who have the crafting gene, you can make a
Christmas ornament for your Christmas tree. It can be made from
fabric, plastic, Popsicle sticks, old gum, painted glass, or even
rubber bands. It doesn’t matter what the ornament is made of as long
as it is made by you.
Generic Plastic Bulbs
Even if you have family heirloom ornaments, and handmade ornaments,
chances are you are going to need a few more ornaments to fill up
the extra space on your Christmas tree. Purchasing generic plastic
bulbs is a good way to add some color and volume to an otherwise
dull tree. These bulbs come in a variety of colors and shapes, but
rarely come with their own hooks. Say it with me… “cheapskates”!
Cheesy Retail/Fast Food Ornaments
These particular Christmas ornaments are created by stores and fast
food places specifically for that Christmas season. They are creatio
imago of certain well loved or well known characters. There are even
some animated movies that promote themselves by making their most
recognizable characters into Christmas ornaments. As cute as these
ornaments are, they should not be used for more than a year. Cheesy
ornament rollover is not okay.
Now that you have read, and enjoyed, this list of ornaments, you can
make the creative decisions necessary to ensure that your Christmas
tree isn’t naked this holiday season!
