The Christmas Guys Chestnut of the Day- September 4, 2010

The Christmas Guys Chestnut of the day~ A wreath with holly, red berries and other decorations began from at least the 17th century. Holly, with its sharp pointed leaves, symbolizes the thorns in Christ’s crown of thorns. Red berries symbolize the drops of Christ’s blood. A wreath at Christmas signifies the home celebrates the birth of Christ. Only 111 more sleeps until Christmas!
