Ornament of the Day: A Shimmering Icicle

Purchased for me when I was a child, this icicle hung on my parents’ Christmas tree, and came with me when I was grown.  Hanging from a brilliant red ribbon, a red and green icicle twists into a pleasing shape—topped with just the right amount of gold glitter.  If only real icicles looked like this!  But, when seen through the filter of Christmas, everything is just that much prettier.
