Feasts, family, presents, glittering decorations, and that special spirit: these things make up traditions of Christmas. Celebrate the eternal joy of Noël with Victoria''s wonderful collection of remembrances, recipes, and holiday suggestions, all presented in the magazine''s classic, romantic, and beautifully photographed style. Make gifts, fashion a real children''s holiday, and set a lovely Christmas table. Rich colour images capture familiar, beloved pleasures of the season, including sleigh rides in the snow and breathtaking Christmas trees shimmering with light and ornaments. Find ways to create gift-wraps from delicate fabrics and antique lace that are as lovely as the presents themselves. Bake sweet memories with heart cookies, lavender shortbread fingers, or English toffee. Recollections from writers such as Washington Irving, A. E. Houseman, and Hans Christian Andersen make this a treasure you''ll return to every year.
