Detailed Description: Christmas is the time of celebrations. Of families gathering around the fire, exchanging gifts and being jolly. Christmas is a celebration that marks the birth of Christ, but with the passage of time, it has evolved as a Family Holiday and more than 400 million people celebrate Christmas each year. The festivities begin on Christmas Eve, December 24th, and continue to Christmas Day, December 25th.
History & Traditions: The beginning of Christmas dates back to 300A.D., when the birthday of Jesus Christ was determined to be on the 25th of December. The ancient Romans honoured the birth of Christ with a festival named “Dies Natalis Solis Invicti”, which means "the birthday of the unconquered sun" while in Scandinavia a winter festival named Yule was held. The day following Christmas is often called “Boxing Day” in the memory of a medieval tradition that started almost 800 years ago. Churches used to open their alms boxes on the day after Christmas and distribute the money and gifts to the poor. This tradition still exists today in the form small gifts given to delivery workers, postal staff and children who deliver newspapers.
Santa Claus / Father Christmas: Everyone has childhood memories related to Christmas and Santa Claus, the excitement and waiting for the old man’s visit and Christmas gifts. This tradition took root in 4th century A.D., from a real person: St. Nicholas, Bishop of Myra (Modern-day Turkey) was very generous, particularly towards children. The modern name “Santa Claus” is derived from the Dutch version of his name, “Sinterklaas.”
Christmas Stockings: It is said that in order to anonymously help a poor girl, Santa Claus climbed up the roof and dropped a purse of money down the chimney. The purse landed in the girl’s stocking, thus giving rise to the tradition of Christmas Stockings.

Christmas Carols: Christmas Carols symbolise the gist of the Christmas spirit: they help bring friends and family together and create an atmosphere of joy and bliss. The most famous Christmas carol is undoubtedly “Silent Night”. This carol originated from Austria and was popular as early as World War I. Back On Christmas Eve soldiers from opposite sides of the war front laid down their weapons and sung this carol across no man’s land. “Jingle Bells” is another beautiful carol that brings back fond memories of happy Christmases spent with loved ones.
Christmas Tree: No Christmas can be complete without a Christmas tree. It is the centre of attention in any Christmas celebration. Christmas gifts are left underneath the Christmas tree and a lot of importance and time is given to the Christmas tree’s ornamentation. The tradition began somewhere in the 16th century when Germans started using elaborately decorated Fir trees as a symbol of the Paradise Tree in the Garden of Eden. By mid eighteenth century, Christmas trees were all the rage in Europe, including England. In 1846, images of Queen Victoria, the German Prince Albert and their children showed up in the London News around a Christmas Tree. Eventually, the masses adopted the Christmas tree as an important symbol of Christmas.
Christmas Decorations: Here comes the fun part: Every year people decorate their homes for Christmas. Each year we want our homes to look better than the last. It is a time honoured ritual, as in the 18th century, women would sit down with their friends and make Christmas crafts and decorations in the days preceding Christmas. They made simple objects like Christmas stars and small paper packages that were used to keep small delicacies like sugar almonds. Nowadays, children make Christmas crafts at school, which make great collectibles, keepsakes of childhood days and fond memories.
Christmas Flowers: Flowers are the perfect decorations for Christmas as they adapt so well to the Christmas theme and spirit. They are available in Christmas colours: Red Flowers, or White Flowers and Green foliage make the perfect ambience for a Christmas Dinner. A wide variety in terms of size ensures that perfect combination to match your Christmas Theme to perfection. Beautiful bouquets and table centerpieces enliven your dining table and individual blossoms can be used to decorate walls and fences. Flower arrangements around the Christmas tree also look very festive on Christmas Eve.

Christmas Wreaths: Like the Christmas tree, Christmas Wreaths(insert link here) are also a time honoured symbol of Christmas festivities. Historically, the wreath symbolises the “Advent” or the “coming of Christ.” The circular shape and the evergreen twigs of the wreath symbolise Eternity and Never Ending Life. Christmas Wreaths are often adorned with beautiful Holly berries (Ilex) that symbolise Peace on Earth and Goodwill Towards Man. Christmas Wreaths symbolise Peace and Love and are also believed to ward off evil. You can order Christmas Wreaths online, with Free delivery UK, at Modeflowers.com.
