Design Crafters

The first store to even sell Christmas tree ornaments was Woolworths back in 1880. They caught on very quickly and were soon added to the candies and cakes previously hung by ribbon from the Victorian times.

In the 16th century, Martin Luther is credited as being the first person to put candles on a tree. The first electrically lighted Christmas tree appeared in 1882 and Calvin Coolidge in 1923 ceremoniously lit the first outdoor Christmas tree at the White House, starting that long tradition.
