Basic Tips for Decorating Christmas Trees
- Fluff and shape branches first.
- Lights should go on first and be woven throughout the branches.
- Add garland and ribbon before ornaments, unless draping down front of tree.
- Put reflective ornaments to reflect light then character ornaments.
- The number of ornaments depends on the height of tree (10-15 ornaments per foot).
- Put ornaments close to the trunk to give fullness.
- Change tap water often to keep tree moist.
