Classic and Traditional Christmas Ornaments
Decorative ornaments have been around for many years. In Victorian times, people were often allowed to add beautiful ornaments to their Christmas tree. The Victorian era ushered in the concept of "etymology", the study of symbols and ornamentation that had deep meaning and connotations. Traditional ornaments used to adorn Christmas trees were bells, garlands of flowers, wreaths, mistletoe, poinsettias and pine cones. Over time, different types of ornaments have emerged. These ornaments are now considered as essential Christmas symbols. There are countless types of decorative Christmas ornaments available in stores today. Among these are Christmas baubles which are small (usually less than an inch wide), delicately designed, embellished with tiny plastic baubles and available in red, green, white, blue, pink or purple. Other types of ornaments include garlands, swags, rugs and bows. These ornaments can be seen adorning Christmas trees not only in the United States but also
