The age that included Christmas is so old, nobody remembers it or its rites. However, the devil-girl hiked across the continent recently. Were she feeling lonely and found a lone pine in the middle of a meadow when it was time to rest, she might just fill it with sprites, glowing sparkling lights that can last hours. She's good enough to splash walls with messy ribbons of rainbow glow, so she'd likely populate the boughs with spheres radiating all the primary colors, each flickering randomly like a candle flame in a fresh breeze. It would generate a sense of home, back when home was a good place to live.
