ChristmasTree Decoration

Christmas tree decorating

During the Christmas season, it's wonderful to pass houses with majestic trees in the living room window, decked out in lights, garland, and ornaments. Decorating a Christmas tree is a time-honored tradition for many households, even though Christmas tree decorating as we know it now didn't gain popularity in America until the late 19th century. Early decorations were mostly homemade ornaments and brightly dyed garlands, but today's decorations include everything from souvenir ornaments to vinyl records and -- of course -- lots of twinkling lights.
