What's Atop Your Christmas Tree?

[CleverNickName]

For those of us who observe Christmas and/or decorate a Christmas Tree, what do you put on top of it?

Is it an Angel?

Perhaps it's a Bow?

Maybe you have a Glass Finial?

Or a Hat?

Is it jolly ol' Santa?

Or a frosty ol' Snowman?

Is it the classic Star?

Do you leave your tree un-topped?

...or top it with something else entirely?

 

[The Soloist]

For several years now we've had a white angel with illuminated star around it. We are not religious, it's just good contrast agains the coloured light of the tree.

As a follow up, you should ask, What is at the bottom of your Christmas tree?

Our family has an antique blown-glass finial that we would always top our tree with...it's been in the family for about a hundred years. My brother (the eldest) inherited it when my father passed away.

But I'm the middle child, so I had to find my own topper. We have a glass finial of our own, but it's not really heirloom-quality...I've got my eyes peeled for a nice hand-blown one.

I would like a cool angel such as St Michael with a sword, or a DnD angel, I mean Solar, but we only have the typical baby Jesus type on the tree.

There's always the Biblically-accurate angel:

We alternate between a Sheltie Angel and a Santa. It's Sheltie Angel this year. It's the dog, not the angel, that matters.
