The Christmas wreath has its roots in Advent, meaning “coming”. In traditional churches, Advent spans four Sundays: a time of joyful expectation and hope for salvation, leading up to the celebration of Jesus Christ’s arrival in the world.
An Advent wreath is a ring woven from green leaves. The greenery represents renewed life, while the circle symbolises everlasting hope. Hung on a door, it announces that the Saviour is coming.
Before Christmas Eve, Hualien WOW teamed up with local creative studio 木玫瑰創意生活工作室 for a wreath-making workshop. Everyone made a one-of-a-kind wreath to take home, both as a decoration and a wish for good things to come.
