Formation of Snowflakes.
A snowflake consists of up to 100 snow crystals clumped together. Snow crystals grow from water vapor, the evaporated form of water, in clouds. Amazingly Enough, all of the billions of snow crystals in existence have 6 sides and grow in either plate like or columnar patterns, depending on the air temperature and the amount of moisture present. Plate like snow crystals appear as flat, six sided plates. In cold, humid air, they grow in the shape of 6 pointed stars. Columnar snow crystals resemble long needles of ice. However, high humidity may cause them to become hollow columns. Some snowflakes have been known to measure 4 inches in diameter! There are 2 ways that we get pictures and information about snowflakes to make beautiful Christmas ornament snowflakes. Snowflakes can be caught on a black surface and looked at with a microscope. Snowflakes can also be made to fall into a plastic solution which coats the snowflake and hardens quickly. As the flake melts, it leaves a hollow shell, or cast, which retains the exact shape of the flake. Select this link to view our Unique Christmas Gifts.
Snowmen.
There are many reasons why snowmen are particularly beloved, but one old legend explains why children are especially fond of them. Did you know that our snowy friends dance and that only children are able to see them? After a snowman has been built and left alone outdoors in the frigid air, he begins to come to life! The snowman dances to amuse and captivate the children who watch, for it brings happiness to his rather short life. So during Christmas, if your children seem to be staring out the window in a daze, do not worry, most likely a dancing snowman is entertaining them. Select this link to view our Christmas Figurines.
The Icicle.
It is said that one winter a little child was wandering in the forest during a terrible snowstorm. A gentle fir tree welcomed the child into its branches and sheltered the child through the night. In the morning, the child was very grateful and thanked the tree many times for its shelter. After the child left, the tree learned that the child was a Christkind, an innocent child of Christ. Proud of its act, the tree wept with joy. Icicles formed and glistened beautifully in the sun. Icicles symbolize the strength of winter and the brilliance of a good deed.
