During the holiday season of 1843, those friends were causing Cole much anxiety. In Victorian England, it was considered impolite not to Tree Lighting Party answer mail. He had to figure out a way to respond to all of these people. December 1 Cole hit on an ingenious idea. He approached an artist friend, J.C. Horsley, and Birthday Celebrations asked him to design an idea that Cole had sketched out in his mind. Cole then took 6550 Yank Way December 7 Horsley?s illustration? a triptych showing a Arvada, CO 80004 family at table celebrating the holiday (303)424-6550 flanked by images of people helping the Candlelight Dinner poor? and had a thousand copies made by a London printer. The image was December 7 - 9 printed on a piece of stiff cardboard 5 1/ 8 x 3 1/ 4 inches in size. At the top of each was the salutation, ?TO:_____? allowing Cole to personalize his responses, which included the generic greeting ?A Merry Christmas and A Pearl Harbor Day Happy New Year To You.? It was the first Christmas card. December 7 Louis Prang, a Prussian immigrant with a print shop near Boston, is credited with creating the first Christmas card originating in the United States in 1875.

The card was a painting of a flower, December 16 and it read ?Merry Christmas.? This more artistic, subtle approach would categorize this first generation of American Christmas cards. ?They were vivid, Nutcracker Activity beautiful reproductions,? says Collins. ?There were very few nativity scenes or depictions of holiday celebrations. You were typically looking at animals, December 18 nature, scenes that could have taken place in October or February.? The modern Christmas card industry arguably began in 1915, when a Kansas Christmas City-based fledgling postcard printing company started by Joyce Hall, later to be joined by his brothers Rollie and William, published its first holiday card.

  • Laughter and Libations, 2019
    Laughter and Libations: A Pagan-Safe Songbook K. S. Wright 2019 Created for use by Khalielawright.com Laugh’ter (laf ter) n. mere diversion of pleasure. Li-ba-tion (lī bā’shen) n. the ritual pouring out of wine to honor a god. By 1879 caroling was defined as “going around from place to place singing Christmas songs” and was thought to be a revival of an old English custom. This is not the case. In reality, caroling traces its origin back to the Old French carole, “a kind round dance accompanied by singers,” (c. 1300.) Those who did the singing and dancing, carolers, owe their moniker to the root word carl (n.) “bondsman; a common man of low birth,” from the Old Norse karl, meaning “man.” When the housecarls went carousing, bawdy drinking songs ensued. It is not hard to imaging the lords and ladies of the manner eagerly offering them a cup of whatever was on hand just to get them to take their signing and dancing elsewhere. The aim of Laughter and Libations is to trace common carols back to their less than pious roots, revving their original intent, which was to celebrate feasting and fornicating, drinking and dancing. This guide is divided into three sections: 1) Traditional Treasures, which provides history and original lyrics of the carols, 2) Simple Substitutions, showing how to change a Christmas carol into one celebrating Yule, Saturnalia, or what-have-you, and 3) Ridiculous Rewrites, which contains Christmas hymns for which there are no other existing lyrics, rewritten in a Pagan-Safe form.
