The Christmas Spirit of Murano Glass
The best time of the year is coming again, one holiday after another we will experience the holiday season once more. Unfortunately, the previous 2020 didn’t let us enjoy these beautiful moments as much as we should, we couldn’t be with all our loved ones, and the mood wasn’t the same. However, this year we are having the big break that we deserve, we can finally group all of our loved ones and enjoy the happiness of the Holiday season together.
If you are like most of us, then you too cannot wait to open up the decorations and start decorating for Christmas, to bring that Christmas mood. And, no one can blame us, in a world filled with stress and work, we all like to ease our heads and focus on things that make us happy, and Christmas decorations evoke those strong feelings of real happiness since we were children.
To be honest, when it comes to this part of the season, I get excited just from the anticipation of the holidays, in a similar way as we all get excited with the anticipation in the weeks before a vacation. That’s because decorations are simply an anchor or pathway to those old childhood magical emotions of excitement. So putting up those Christmas decorations early extends the excitement!
If you would like to fire up the Christmas decorations early this year, go for it, in fact there is a scientist study that says that “People who begin Christmas celebrations early are happier”. I don’t know if that is true or not, but I surely do feel happier when I start decorating, and since we spent last Christmas sheltered in place during the pandemic, we could all use a little extra holiday cheer this year.
If you need more convincing on why to bring out the big decorative guns, well aside from making you happier by turning on the “holiday spirit”, it will also bring some joy to the people in your neighborhood and make you some new friends too, because everyone loves the friendly jolly neighbor. Plus, it’s getting darker outside so you can fire up the Christmas lights, and last but not least, to show off your new decorations.
Speaking of decorations, there are many ideas to get you started, all of which make you happy, help you connect with the neighbors, and bring some light to the winter gloom, however, there is one type of decoration that has taken over the world by a storm, one that interior decorators and luxury lover cannot resist, and that is the Murano Glass Christmas Décor.
Murano Glass is actually a very famous glass-making technique that produces figures ranging from vases, centerpieces, and even Christmas Décor. It’s completely handmade by true masters, and it’s made on the island of Murano, thus the name, which is located next to the floating city of Venice. In fact, no one else, but artisans from Murano can make it, and in order to distinguish original from fake Murano glass figures, the province of Veneto where Venice and Murano are located has issued a law protecting these figures with a Trademark of Originality.
