Day bells, wreaths and. ribbon ornaments complete the feeling of Christ- mas in the home. Christmas cards are part of the Christmas fantasy, and so many of them adapt beautifully to the glittering themes desired.. Many of this year's cards are trimmed with glitter or feature embossed designs which catch and reflect the soft lights of the tree. Try attaching your cards to lengths of ribbon and hanging the ribbon to door frames or mantel pieces. Transparent tape, straight pins or staples can be used to attach the cards to the ribbon. Tie a lovely bow at the top of the ribbon as trim. You'll find dusting much easier, too, than if you allowed the cards to stand free on the mantel or other flat surfaces. Cards shine the Christmas warmth of your home to your neighbours. Paste or tape par- ticularly pretty cards to the windows, design side out.

She said: "An ancient tale tells us of the Christmas custom of burn- ing a yule log in every fireplace and of how, as the log was drawn from the forest 'each wayfarer raised his hat as it passed, for he well knew it was full of good promises, and that it's flame would burn out old wrongs'.
