Lille Juleaften (Little Christmas Eve)
From http://library.thinkquest.org/18802/norxmas.htm#23 Most Norwegians decorate their Christmas tree in the evening of Dec. 23. The decorating of the house and the tree is done by the entire family. There is a star on the top of the tree, and electric candles-shaped lights on the branches. Tinsel, hearts, angels, nisser and sometimes flags are a part of the tree decoration. Heart shaped christmas baskets made of colored, glossy paper is a decoration which is widely used. |
