************************
Christmas Ornaments originated in Germany and first became popular in America around 1880. The first ornaments were imported to America by F.W. Woolworth from Germany. These ornaments were hand-cast lead and hand-blown glass decorations. .
By 1935, more then 250 million Christmas tree ornaments were being imported to America. The first American company started producing Christmas ornaments significantly only in 1939, due to the outbreak of World War II. Christmas ball and bauble ornaments have been quite popular since then.
Keepsake Christmas Ornaments first appeared in 1973 as decorated glass balls and yarn figures. Later, they expanded to include Christmas ornament handicrafts such as bone china, porcelain, paper mache, wood and acrylic ornaments.
Special ornaments can be enjoyed year after year and today the variety and styles of Christmas ornaments has increased to a much wider selection. Many companies offer lines of collectible ornaments in a wide range of types and themes for every collector to enjoy!
