Williamsburg Christmas

As we walked around Williamsburg I took pictures of all the Christmas decorations.  You can click on the pictures to get a closer look at the wreaths.  Each business owner created a wreath using what they do or sell inside.  That made for some interesting wreaths.

Most of the wreaths are made with natural items.  I learned that back in the 1700’s they would not have use all the fruit because it would have been a waste to use food as decoration.
