Easter tree
Easter trees became an American tradition shortly after the Civil War. In Germany, Ukraine and Austria, the trees have been around for a long time. They decorate evergreens with painted eggs. Eggs represent regeneration, renewal, and resurrection.
Trees have grown in popularity since the book "The Egg Tree" was published. By Catherine Milhous, the book is a story of a girl who found her grandmother's old eggs hidden in the attic. She takes them outside, hangs on the tree and starts a wonderful new tradition in her family.
People use many different and colorful decorations on these trees. Hand-painted eggs, miniature baskets with eggs, miniature straw hats with flowers attached, many commonly used to hang pieces of wood, speaking generally, most people have crookedness branches Use Forsythia or Cherry tree because it is a perfect decorative holder.
Most of the eggs used were blown off or pins were inserted at one end. The egg yolk is blown off and the shell is painted. Carefully packed, these fragile eggs can be used each year.
Germans extend their decoration from trees to their yard. Then, during the trip Germany Easter, live trees and gardens were sprinkled with colors. In some of their facilities such as elderly rest homes, eggs with a basket, rabbits, and foyars, completely decorated with large trees, are hard to find chickens, if you look hard enough It may be spotted.
If your tree is inside, make sure to decorate down as well. It is a tree under a rabbit or egg-cage that is When the Easter Bunny comes, he goes to fill the basket with a good surprise.
You can also decorate your tree with other decorative parts. Chickens, roosters, small baskets and eggs are always great. Find some wreaths to help in the festive look. Use a wreath of small flowers and little rabbits. The sky is the limit. The most important thing is to have fun with your children and your Easter tree.
