Show Me Christmas

Rainbow Heart

Rainbows can be observed whenever there are water drops in the air and sunlight shining from behind a person on the ground.  The most spectacular rainbow displays happen when half of the sky is still dark with raining clouds and the observer is at a spot with clear sky in the direction of the sun. 

Rainbows can be caused by other forms of water than rain, including mist, spray and dew.  The mist from a waterfall may also result in a rainbow.  Rainbows may also form in the spray created by waves.  That’s why Hawaii with its many waterfalls and waves is often called the rainbow state.

I think it is fun at this time of the year, when I am often missing the glorious days by the beach or in the sun, to create a themed Christmas tree.  I love all things that remind me of the sun, sea and beach.  All of the rainbow ornaments that are so colorful and cheerful are perfect for that seaside themed Christmas tree.  You can also add shell, fish and sea animal ornaments as well.  Anything that reminds you of summer fun or vacation fun by the beach. 

A perfect addition to this tree is the rainbow heart ornament from the Abigail Collection.  It is a hand blown and hand painted glass ornament imported from Poland.  This colorful ornament is so cheerful it is sure to light up the holidays!
