Holiday decorating with porcelain glass ornaments

Porcelain is a form of glass in the fact that it is very translucent, but it is easier to shape and mold. Glass Christmas ornaments come in various types. Many of our porcelain pieces are shaped in a traditional French style, as seen in our logo. Both porcelain and glass Christmas ornaments allow for more delicate and sophisticated holiday decorating around the house. When you choose porcelain instead of the plastic or metal ones, you're showing your distinguished taste in quality craftsmanship and delicate, ornate artwork. Also, your pieces will last year to year as timeless heirlooms. Glass Christmas ornaments shimmer and shine near tree lights, especially the glass ornaments from our large Christmas Collection, which are decorated with glazes, glitters and China paints.

Following are some Christmas decorating tips. Use these decorating ideas to help streamline your efforts and beautify your house.

• Establish a theme, such as blue and white, country, floral or teddy bears.
• Bows, garlands and strands of beads are an inexpensive way to decorate everything in the house.
• Bring out your shiny, sparkling pieces like crystal and glittered glass ornaments. Use candles and fire light or dim overhead lamps, but focus on soft lighting for that festive feel.
• Play joyful holiday music or classical seasonal tunes depending on your mood.
• Provide candies in candy bowls and hang candy canes and berries from wreaths to create a sweet surrounding.
• Use natural materials whenever possible, such as pinecones, branches and greenery.
• Hang your Rhyn-Rivet porcelain pieces on our display trees all over the house for seasonal elegance at every turn.
