These limited edition fine art prints are signed and numbered on acid free rag paper using archival inks rated to resist fading for 100 years under recommended display conditions.
When Colonial Williamsburg first decorated for Christmas in 1936, the greenery was confined to a few plain wreaths and some running cedar to hang about the Governor’s Palace and the Raleigh Tavern.
The door wreaths of Colonial Williamsburg incorporate everyday objects into their designs to tell a story about the places where the wreaths are displayed.
Using everyday objects also allows the wreaths to last longer. Made at home of natural materials--holly berries clipped from a tree, seed pods collected from a nearby field, pine cones found on the forest floor, magnolia leaves pinched from the back yard, and oyster shells gathered at the beach last summer--the decorations suggest a time when the holidays revolved around the sharing of one’s blessings with family and friends.
