How to celebrate Wintertyde's Day, January 7th

OK, you had a cheery Wintertyde's Eve with your family, each member helping to affix your Wintertyde wreath to the door and to get up a small stand of clear or white lights at the doorway.  Plus something silvery on those window candlestick lights.

Now, it's Wintertyde's Day, January 7th, so it's time to set up your Wintertyde tabletop tree for the season.
Use a large size LED-style branching tree.  Cover the base with a snow-like cotton mat.

The next step is to affix your Wintertyde snowflakes.  Use about 12 of the same style that is not too large. About 2" is fine.  Arrange all 12 evenly throughout the branches. Use more if needed.

Now, place that special silver or silver-plated special snowflake you've selected for Wintertyde 2015.  It should be larger than the background snowflakes; 1 new, special silver snowflake goes up with the earlier ones each Wintertyde's Day.

Last step is the attach your artificial chickadees.  For a small tabletop tree, place the chickadee at the top.
For larger trees, use 4 chickadees.  1 on the top and the other 3 birds within the branches themselves.  5
in total is enough birds.

Also, leave room for Wintertyde holiday special ornaments.  For example, Saint Brigit's ("breet's") Day gets a shamrock and a Saint Brigit's cross of straw or silver.  These go onto the tree about 1 week before her day, which is February 1st.

Try a groundhog ornament for February 2, and a football ornament for Super Bowl, usually around the same time.

Later in February, put a Saint Valentine's Day heart on the tree, and something for Mardi Gras later on in the month.  March 1st gets a Saint David's Day dragon ornament, such as a small flag.

Everything comes down for next Wintertyde, on the season's last day March 6th.

Right after all your Wintertyde goodies are tucked away, immediately start preparation for Saint Patrick's Day on March 17th. Winter still has a grip, but there hope with the coming of the Spring Equinox on March 21st.

Each holiday gets a special meal to go with the affixing of the holiday ornament to the Wintertyde tree.
For example, serve something with leeks or onions such as soup for Saint David's Day.  Mardi Gras gets red beans and rice and a King's Cake.  Saint Valentine's Day gets chocolate items all day!

Wintertyde Greetings!
