It all began a long time ago. On the
night of the new year festival which was
held on December the 25th. The people
had a strong superstition about elves
(little people) and trolls (giant people)
that lived in the mountains and came down
to harass the people on this night.
But the people knew that these elves and
trolls only worked in the dark—thus
began the making of candles in Iceland.
May your Christmas and New Year be as
bright as a candle’s light.
MERRY CHRISTMAS - HAPPY NEW YEAR
