As you are beginning to suspect I am a second generation German. Both my Mom and Grandmother emigrated to Canada after WWII.
Christmas or Weihnacten therefore has always been filled with traditions for me and my family. One being we light candles on the tree!
My grandmother brought her original set of these to Canada when she emigrated which I still have!
How pretty it looks, even in a modern setting like this.
So lovely in the evening when just lit! And we mostly don't lite them until Christmas eve which is when we open our presents, another tradition in Germany.
