Real Spun Glass Angel Hair Christmas Decoration
Do you remember Angel Hair?
Angel Hair was a popular Christmas decoration. It was made out of spun glass (fiberglass) and it was used for Christmas tree trimming, Nativity Scenes, Santa's Whiskers, and Religious Decorations. Many people love how it looks around lights as it refracts light and makes the tree seem to glow. However, it can be very itchy if you get it on your skin, and there are other possible health concerns, so most stores don't sell it any more. If you are looking to buy it, you might have to buy it onl...

A Civil War Christmas
What Was Christmas Like during the Civil War?
In researching my Civil War ancestor, I wondered what Christmas was like for the soldiers in their winter camps and for their families back home without them. I searched a number of sources, including some diaries by soldiers. Here's what I've found about Civil War Christmas time. I hope it answers any questions you had about what Christmas was like in the 1860s during the War Between the States. If not, then leave your question in the guestbook and I will research it further.

Vintage Christmas Decorations
Vintage Christmas Decorations -- they remind me of simpler times -- nostalgia -- loading the station wagon and going to Grandma's house, sitting on Santa's knee, the tree in all its splendor featuring large bulb electric lights, popcorn garland and glass ornaments, the turkey dinner with all the trimmings, Christmas morning, the brightly colored packages and bows -- but most of all, Family. A few years ago, I donated all my Christmas decor and started over. I wanted our Christmas to have the...
