Description
Grandma's Crochet Christmas Star Ornaments bring back warm font memories. They are so much fun to have around the holidays. Beautiful on the Christmas tree, wonderful old time decoration on gifts. Delicate, homemade and timeless they adore homes all across the world. Christmas ornaments are much like the ancient music of Christmas.
They were devised not to entertain or to decorate but rather to educate.
Ornaments are a natural showcase of symbols and an open invitation to storytelling. Through them ideas are conveyed, principles are taught and life lessons are shared.
That was their use anciently and it was a practice used widely in the ages before printed books and organized schools. Germany is credited with starting the Christmas tree tradition as we now know it in the 16th century when devout Christians brought decorated trees into their homes. ... It is a widely held belief that Martin Luther, the 16th-century Protestant reformer, first added lighted candles to a tree.
