Ornament collecting
is Christmas tradition
No other time of year inspires more
goodwill and merriment among Canadians
than Christmas. Family and friends gather
to rekindike the home fires and spirit of
celebration that magically descends upon
all of us during the season.

engaged in elaborate preparations which
mark the coming of Christmas. From the
traditional choosing and decorating of the
Christmas tree, to the last minute wrapping
off presents, these activities create a sense of
excitement that endures throughout the
holiday season until New year's resolution
time.
Decorative items can be found just about
anywhere -from the forest cone pine boughs
and berries, ribbon from the sewing kit and
specialty items abound in card and gift
shops.

increasingly popular among Canadians is
ornament collecting -remember that
favorite glass bulb from your childhood?

that recThints the last ten years of Hallmark
ornaments with colour photographs and

the antique rocking horse, Baby's first
Christmas, Jack Frost and an Eskimo
nuzzling a seal are just a few of the wide
selection of Keepsake collectibles prodcued
by Hallmark this year.
Many of the ornaments are also dated,
adding a timely element for collectors. And

twirling on a nylon rope and angel sliding

friend or older relative. They can be a great
way to say the words that are often difficult
to personally express.
