Silver bells
Melodious
Beautiful
Simple
Festive
Ringing
sweetly,
gently.
Harmonious

When we think of silver bells we think of the sounds and the songs of the season, horse-drawn carriages, and one particular song that evokes the very essence of the Christmas season.


City sidewalks busy sidewalks .
Dressed in holiday style
In the air
There's a feeling
of Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hear

Silver bells silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring a ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day

Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush
home with their treasures

Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle
You'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day

As with the evergreen, the candy cane, the silver bell is a simple way to add a touch of sparkle and song to your holiday decor... whether to your home, tree, holiday table, or gift wrap, the silver bell adds beauty and the magic to your home in the most simple yet spectacular of ways!
