No kidding! I had no idea. Putting the tinsel onto the tree when I was a kid, was one of the things I always looked forward to.

One can hardly find tinsel anymore, and I don't use it on my own tree...I do miss the shivery, sparkling whispers of tinsel on the tree.

Thanks, Marie, for the info about tinsel! :)

Tinsel is sort of like Easter grass; it's really a test of your vacuuming abilities. If you're not really fastidious, you'll be finding that stuff for months. I love it anyway!

I gave up on tinsel for the tree a long time ago. My husband and daughter would wait until my back was turned and throw it on the Christmas tree in huge bunches. Shame on them!

Interesting, Marie !

You neglected to mention that 99% of the tinsel output of Higam Ferrers, England was exported to Hollywood, thus the name "Tinseltown."
