8. Menino Jesus
Decorating around the fireplace with a festive spirit doesn’t have to revolve around Santa Claus and his reindeer. The original concept behind Christmas did revolve around a certain Saint Nicholas dropping money in the stockings of three young ladies that were in a desperate situation.
This act of kindness was meant to go unnoticed but their father caught him in the act as this man saved his daughters. When asked why he did it, Nicholas said it was due to the generosity of Jesus Christ that he was inspired to do what he did.
The Menino Jesus is spotted in the wreath while the rest of this elaborately decorated fireplace glorified the spirit of Christmas in a manner that sees the genius of creativity at its best.
