merry christmas to all

Christmas decorations ~ ~ ~ ~ There can be no Christmas without Christmas decorations! Decors evoke Christmas sentiments among children and grown-ups. Christmas decorations date all the way back to the old Christmas markets in 16th century Germany. In those days, Christmas food, such as sugar rods, honey cakes, and other Christmas candy, were particularly used as Christmas decorations. In the 18th century, many other kinds of Christmas decorations became popular. Among them were glazed paper, colored paper, and those which contain candies, nuts, cakes, raisins, and fruits.
