Mini gifts, the ideal gift for children, when my kids were small the preferred many small gifts above one 1 “big” gift. they could open presents after each course of the christmas feast.

Christel Dauwe Collection : miniature ornament : Gurk

Why on earth do people put a gurk in their christmas tree ? Well as the story goes :

Before 1900 when christmastrees were filled with eatable presents like nuts (sometimes painted in gold), oranges, apples, cookies…….

the childeren of the family were allowed to pillage the christmas tree on christmas day.

The child (often helped by any elder or grandparent) that found the “gurk” was allowed an extra treat from the tree.

Wether this is a true story or a commercial invention is lost in history, I for one thing like the story.

No Christmas tree without a candy cane !!! I really can not imagine a christmas tree without the candy cane.

For most of us it is only candy for others there are extra meanings such as :

the cane represents the staff which Jesus used as an attribute

the red and white represent the red of his blood against the white of his skin at the cross

Christel Dauwe Collection Christmas miniature : Owl on reflex

Basicly the same as “Owl on reflex code 5118” but only a smaller version, we often get the complaint that the nice ornaments are all the big for some people. So with this we did a try out is small is more appealing.
