The History of the Christmas Tree
There are many stories and speculations over the origin of the first Christmas tree and although we can’t be certain on the source, there are several clues that point to where this custom came from. It is said that thousands of years ago, people believed evergreens held magical powers, staying green and healthy even in the harshest of winters. Eventually, this tree would move indoors. Legend has it that indoor tree decorating began in Germany with Martin Luther, when he brought a tree indoors and adorned it with candles to represent stars between the branches of the night sky. The custom quickly spread in Germany and then throughout the world. In the mid 1800’s, decorations were mostly homemade with young women spending hours preparing ornaments for their family trees. The 1960’s were quite the opposite, when silver aluminum trees were imported from America equipped with their own light source and decorations to boot! Although the tree itself has seen many changes over the years, the idea remains a Christmas tradition in many households throughout the land.

Can we have more choice for UK customers please. We don’t say Happy Holidays in the UK. Is just a US thing.
