A Glimpse of Christmas with Sketchart26

The True Meaning of Christmas



Christmas is a yearly holiday, which is celebrated on December 25th and honors the birth of Jesus of Nazareth. Many believe that Jesus was born on the 25th of December however it is not actually believed to be his actual birthday. It is thought that December 25th was selected to match up with either the winter solstice or one of the Roman festivals.

These days Christmas is renowned for the giving of gifts as well as attending Church services and exhibiting decorations, such as Christmas trees, lights, tinsel and much more. Children love Christmas time as they receive gifts from Santa Clues also known as Father Christmas. Santa Claus and Father Christmas both have two different origins. Santa Claus also known as Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, Saint Nicholas or Santa is the well-known imaginary figure, and is recognized in countless Western cultures for being the man that brings gifts to children who are well behaved on Christmas Eve. Father Christmas on the other hand is what English speaking people call the representative figure connected with Christmas.

Christmas is for everyone, both Christians and non-Christians. Christmas has also turned out to be a most important event for numerous retailers due to the gift giving.

I made this page because I work hard on my Zazzle gallery and my designs, and wanted a fun way to reach new people like you. But I also wanted a way to join with my fellow Zazzler's to bring together a glimpse of what is being offered for Christmas on Zazzle.

Here's the link to my Zazzle Gallery. Head on over and look around. http://www.zazzle.com/Sketchart26
