«Christmas in England»

The British decorate the house with Holly. This is a beautiful plant with sharp leaves.

In England there was also the custom of exchanging the New year greeting cards. The first greeting card for Christmas was printed in 1843 in London.

English people put gifts in Christmas socks. They pretend that Santa Claus puts presents in their socks.
