Description: 25 piece Chrismon charm set. These can be used to decorate a mini Christmas tree or they can be added to the tree daily like an advent calendar. You will receive 25 charms that are a symbol of Christ or the Christian faith. The charms are listed below with their symbolism. The 25 piece charm set comes in a red velvet pouch. The charms do not come with jump rings attached, you can purchase them separately or you can use basic Christmas ornament hangers as I did, the small ones work best (see photos). I found a 16 inch tall Christmas tree decoration at walmart for $10.98. It is made of folded green velvet ribbon. I slid the ornament hooks into the folded ribbon to hold the charms (see photos) *The tree and the ornament hooks are NOT included, they are shown as a reference of how you can display the crismon charms* The word Chrismon a combination of "Christ" and "monogram" and is used to refer to special Christmas tree ornaments that are symbols of Christ and the Christian faith.
