Dear Karen and Michelle,

* I am writing to you in relation to my recent order from your company for some christmas decorations. I thought this year that I would get some gifts for some friends with personalised xmas ornaments and I went online to look. Needless to say I found some american sights with lovely personalised gifts but the cost of delivery to ireland was extortionate. However in this search I had the wonderful luck to find your website. Well I made my order just the night before last and to my delight when I arrived to the office today the parcel was there waiting for me. All six items are lovely and done just as I had requested. They were extremely well packaged for posting and with the christmas tissue wrapping around them which is a lovely touch as is the little gift bag. I am not a one always for writing letters of acknowledgement or thanks but I have to say that the gifts are lovely and your service, delivery, packaging, promptness etc were nothing short of excellent. Thank you very much for this and I shall certainly be shopping with ye again in the future.

Kind regards, K.M. Galway *

History of Christmas Decorations

Christmas Decorations take many different forms, from a simple round ball to highly artistic designs. Christmas Decorations are almost always reused year after year, rather than purchased annually, and family collections often contain a combination of commercially produced ornaments and decorations created by family members. Such collections are often passed on and augmented from generation to generation.

Santa Claus is a commonly used figure. Candy canes, fruit, animals and snowflake imagery are also popular choices The modern-day Christmas decoration was originally invented in the small German town of Lauscha in the late 16th century A bauble is a spherical decoration that is commonly used to adorn Christmas trees. It is one of the most popular Christmas ornament designs, and you can find at least one bauble on virtually any Christmas tree. Baubles can have various designs on them, from "baby's first Christmas," to a favorite sports team. Baubles have been in production since 1847. Glass baubles were first made in Lauscha, Germany by Hans Greiner who according to legend, began hand blowing glass into Christmas decorations because he was unable to afford usual ornaments such as nuts, apples and candy.

Greiner originally started by blowing glass into the shape of fruit and nuts. The inside of his decorations were made to look silvery, at first with mercury or lead, then later using a special compound of silver nitrate and sugar water.

As demand for Greiner's ornaments grew, he began blowing the glass into new shapes including the sphere which is now the most popular.Other glassblowers in Lauscha recognised the growing popularity of Christmas baubles and began producing them in a wide range of designs. Soon, the whole of Germany began buying Christmas glassware from Lauscha and after Queen Victoria's Christmas tree was pictured in a London newspaper decorated with glass ornaments and baubles from Prince Albert's native Germany, Lauscha began exporting its products throughout Europe.

In the 1880s, American F. W. Woolworth discovered Lauscha's baubles during a visit to Germany. He made a fortune by importing the German glass ornaments to the U.S.A. By the 1920s, traditional handblown methods gave way to mass production and before long there was competition from other regions of Germany and from abroad as well. The demand for the decorative items grew steadily, especially as new colours regularly became fashionable.After World War II, the East German government turned most of Lauscha's glassworks into state-owned entities, and production of baubles in Lauscha ceased. After the Berlin Wall came down, most of the firms were reestablished as private companies. Today there are still about 20 small glass-blowing firms active in Lauscha that produce baubles. One of the producers is Krebs Glas Lauscha, part of the Krebs family which is now one of the largest producers of glassornaments worldwide.Although glass baubles are still produced, baubles are now mainly made from plastic and available worldwide in a huge variety of shapes, colours and designs.
