Review of Frosted and Guilded Walnut Christmas Ornament
Frosted and Guilded Walnut Christmas Ornaments
Review of Upstate NY Lady
"It looks like they used a real walnut to make the mold. Just the right size for a table top tree or placement in the upper branches of a large tree. Well made. Purchase with confidence from the fine people at Trendy Tree, I do."
In Europe, walnuts were used as part of Christmas Eve games, and feasts, One game the children especially enjoyed playing called for cracking the shell of a walnut, putting a small lit candle in it, and floating it in a pan of water. A boy held his breath as the candle melted down because if the candle burned down to the bottom before turning over, it meant the boy would live a long life. A girl would carefully watch the lit candle in the walnut shell, hoping hers would stand the longest, which meant she would marry a good husband.
