Christmas decorations during this time were often lavish and ornate. Homes would be adorned with evergreen garlands, holly, and mistletoe. Christmas trees, usually small and tabletop-sized, would be decorated with candles, handmade paper ornaments, and strings of popcorn or cranberries. Tinsel and glass baubles also became popular decorations during this period.

he Christmas meal was typically a grand affair, with families gathering together to enjoy a festive feast. Traditional dishes like roast turkey or goose, roasted potatoes, stuffing, and seasonal vegetables would be served. Christmas puddings, mince pies, and fruitcakes were popular desserts. It was also customary to have a toast with mulled wine or cider to celebrate the occasion.

Christmas in 1908 had a strong emphasis on charity and giving to those in need. Many people would make donations to charitable organizations or volunteer their time to help the less fortunate. It was common for wealthier families to organize Christmas parties or events for orphanages or other charitable institutions, providing gifts and entertainment for those in need.
