Images of Santa Claus, the legendary, larger than life gift-giver are one of the most popular Christmas decorations during every holiday season. Santa's origins vary from country to country, but love for the jolly old elf is the same worldwide. Many historians agree that the legend of Santa Claus began with the real Saint Nicholas. Born in the third century, in what is now Turkey, Nicholas lost his wealthy parents to an epidemic at a young age. A devout Christian, Nicholas is said to have used his entire inheritance to aid the sick and needy throughout his life. He eventually became a bishop, and later was made a saint by the Catholic Church.
Decorations featuring Santa Claus are some of the most beloved by children and adults alike. This bright display features almost every colour in the spectrum, can be used indoors or outdoors, and measures 1.9 metres x 98cm, with a 1.5 metre lead. This might be the year to start an annual tradition of purchasing a few new Christmas decorations each holiday season. You and your family can enjoy years of memories reminiscing about when and where each cherished item was acquired.
In keeping with the legend of Santa's generosity, this cheerful lighting display depicts Santa trying to stuff a giant stocking full of gifts down the chimney of a house. These colourfully lit Christmas decorations can serve as a merry addition to your collection of holiday adornments for your home or place of business. The image of a benevolent Santa delivering more gifts than will fit down the chimney of the house is sure to spark a conversation (and a life lesson on generosity for your children!). After all, Christmas is the season of giving.
