The Origin of Christmas Wreaths
Although ornamental wreath arrangements can be hung up in the home at any time of year, the traditional Christmas wreath is undeniably a universal symbol of the festive season. Wreaths can be traditional of contemporary, and made out of almost anything! Christmas wreaths often feature fresh greenery such as pine, ivy, and holly, and seasonal flowers and berries for a splash of colour. The word “wreath” originally comes from the Old English word “writhan” which means “to twist,” and have been made by a variety of different cultures over the centuries.
Probably the most familiar type of wreath is those connected with Christmas and Christianity. The circular shape of a wreath is thought to symbolise the unending love of God, and the idea of eternal life. For lots of people, however, wreaths are simply a lovely, festive way to decorate the home over the holiday season, and it’s easy to see why.
