During the ancient Samhain celebration, the Celts drove away evil spirits with tables filled with delectable food. The Irish then spun the tale of Stingy Jack and the Devil, with Jack doomed to haunt the world. To keep spirits at bay, people in the US placed embers in carved turnips, which eventually became pumpkins. Now, get in the spooky spirit with this playful Pumpkin Christmas Ornament. Boo!

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.
