Halloween began with the ancient festival of Samhain, the Celtic New Year, when spirits could visit earth. Later, Christianity turned this into All Hallows' Eve on Oct. 31, before All Saints Day. The Irish introduced Halloween to America in the 1840s, starting the traditions of costumes and pranks to keep evil spirits at bay. Get your Skeleton Ornament to celebrate in style!

Old World Christmas glass Christmas decorations are made using techniques that originated in the 1800s. Molten glass is mouth-blown into finely carved molds before a hot solution of liquid silver is poured inside. The ornaments are then hand-painted and glittered in a series of labor-intensive steps to achieve the beautiful results.
