Fireplace Traditions for the Holiday Season

With Thanksgiving comes the start of the holidays. How many family traditions do you look forward to each year during this season? If you can’t think of any, why not start some?

With a crackling fireplace as your backdrop, you can enjoy so many family moments that you may not have had time for during the busy year. The holidays are a time for bonding and reuniting with family and friends and for thinking about our goals for the coming year.

Felgemacher Fireplace Shop of Cheektowaga, NY, would like to give you a little “food for thought” for some special and memorable fireplace holiday traditions you can start this year.

Everybody Loves To Sing!

Okay, not everybody, but some of us love singing. Kids especially love it because it’s a chance to make some noise. There are a ton of seasonal songs your group can work on to bring alive the sounds of the holidays. If someone plays a musical instrument, they can accompany the voices.

What Can Go On Your Fireplace Mantel?

Fireplace mantels are great for exciting displays all year long, but they’re even better during the holidays. How can you decorate yours? How about a scattering of scented pinecones, a pumpkins or other gourds, holiday portraits of the family, and, of course, stockings? Use your imagination. Create fond memories.

Read Seasonal Stories

Gather the children ‘round the fire and tell some fun seasonal stories. The holiday story collections of Hans Christian Andersen are good places to start. Take turns reading tales such as “The Snow Man,” “The Fir-Tree,” “The Snow Queen,” and “The Little Match Girl.” And if you don’t like reading, make up your own exciting stories!

Just Hanging Out With People You Love

There’s no better way to spend a holiday evening than just sitting around with people you care about and talking about all the crazy things that happened in the year ending and the great things to look forward to in the coming year. With a roaring fireplace as your backdrop, this kind of experience can be the foundation for all your future holiday gatherings.
