including woven sun ornaments, bird feeders, candle holders, ice lanterns, yule logs, tree ornaments and decorations.


Celebrate the pagan solstice by lighting Yule candles, writing songs, making citrus pomanders and even a Nativity scene with the baby Sun King and the triple-Goddess!

Great stuff, thank you. We look at a different winter festival each year and will be doing Yule this year.
