Its the season for celebrations. Christmas trees, decorations, lights…. Gifts under the tree, in US. Christmas Cakes and Stars in God’s Own Country…
Growing up, we used to hang a single star in front of our house during Christmas season. Just a regular paper star, in one of the usual colors – white, green, yellow, red or blue.
These days, the choices are numerous. Christmas stars does not look like stars any more. They come in all shapes and forms. The choices of the color and design galore …

Merry Christmas!
Have a great time and hope your life is just as colorful as the stars in the picture….

Love this tradition … never seen a single star displayed like you described before. But then I never have been in Texas.
Beautiful!
Anna,
I will get a picture of a single star, (the ones that I am used to growing up). The tradition of hanging stars during Christmas is not in Texas, but in Kerala, a state in southern India.
Thanks for stopping by and appreciate your comment.
