Baubles used to decorate Christmas trees were originally made of glass – a tradition started in a small town called Lauscha in Germany. The tradition spread across the globe and was made popular in the US by F.W. Woolworth.

Now you can get baubles in many different shapes and sizes and made out of all sorts of materials.
