Paper bags are designed to hold things
At the Plaza in Salt Lake UT, hundreds of paper bags, each with its own bulb to make it a lantern at night, hold a message ~ a message related to Christmas.
Each bag is open and upright. The messages are crafted in gold,
They line the flower beds (now covered for the winter) and garden edges of the Plaza, inviting visitors to inspect each in turn. Ancient designs and modern language greeting offerings, old, new and universal. The paper bag lanterns are sentinels for nativity scenes depicted by countries foreign to me.
Temple Square and Plaza is a beautiful place to visit anytime: at Christmas time, its visitor appeal is magnified to the spectacular.
Share part of your Christmas season with us in Salt Lake City UT.
