The three traditional colors of most Christmas decorations are red, green and gold. Red symbolizes the blood of Christ, Green symbolized life and rebirth, and Gold represents light, royalty and wealth.
The tradition of Tinsel is based on a legend about spider webs that turned to silver when they were spun on a Christmas Tree.
In Dublin in 1742 the Christmas oratorio, “The Messiah”, by George Frederick Handle was first performed.

The White of the Candy Cane symbolizes the Virgin Birth and the sinless nature of Jesus. The candy-maker made them in the form of a “J” to represent the precious name of Jesus.
Three small red stripes were added to the traditional candy to represent the scourging of Jesus by the Roman soldiers, and the large red stripe is a symbol of the blood he shed on the cross.
Sometimes a green stripe also is added as a reminder that Jesus is an everlasting gift from God.

The image of Santa Claus flying his sleigh began in 1819 and was created by Washington Irving, the same author who dreamt up the Headless Horseman.
German-born American illustrator Thomas Nast (1840-1902) helped create the modern version of Santa as jolly, chubby, and dressed mainly in red.
The first mention of Mrs. Claus was in the 1849 short story A Christmas Legend by James Rees. She was popularized in Katherine Lee Bates's 1889 poem "Goody Santa Claus on a Sleigh Ride." The term "Goody" is short for "Goodwife," or "Mrs."

The North American Aerospace Defense Command's (NORAD) “Santa Tracker” was born from a misprint in the newspaper. A 1955 Sears ad was supposed to print the number of a store where children could call and tell Santa what they wanted for Christmas. The number printed was to the hotline of the Director of Operations for the U.S. Continental Air Defense. Colonel Shoup ordered his staff to give the children updates on the flight coordinates of Santa.
NORAD continues to provide flight updates for local news, the Internet, and even a special iPhone application every Christmas.
