Ornaments - Vintage Botanicals - Pickles
The Pickle ornament had
special meaning to the children of the family. According to legend, the pickle
was supposed to be the last ornament parents hung on the tree - and hidden from
direct view.
Its green color helped to camouflage it within the tree.
The first child to find the pickle on Christmas morning was awarded a special
Christmas gift!
