I think it's cool that the December decors feature various different cultures' christmas traditions, so why not suggest including one from mine? I could see it being either a mask/costume or a creature.

Support!

I'm not 100% certain on this, but isn't Mari Lwyd that tradition where someone goes around to houses that have parties and have song-battles to be let in to eat and drink?

you're mostly correct! it's usually a group of people rather than just one, though usually there's only one person controlling the horse puppet.

I was literally thinking about this the other day, hahaha- it's such a specific and cool Christmas tradition that I think would be super cool as a decor (plus Welsh culture of any kind never really gets represented anywhere ever, I'm not even from the part of the country that does Mari Lwyd and I'd be over the moon to see this-)

Support! I am not Welsh, but the tradition of Mari Lwyd absolutely fascinates me, and as was previously mentioned in this thread, Welsh culture is very rarely represented. Having a Mari Lwyd decor would be excellent for representation and just a neat addition to the various Christmas tradition decors in general.
