A simple plan for tree decorating


Here are some simple tree-decorating tips:


Drape a garland on every other branch from the top to the bottom, making sure it's not pulled too tight or hanging too low.


Placing ornaments requires a little planning. Here's where having everything laid out will be a help.


Big and bright balls should hang deeper into the tree, while smaller and darker ornaments should be closer to the front.


For tree blemishes, like gaps, flower picks and big ornaments come in handy.


Whether the topper for your tree is an angel with flowing hair, a flashing gold star or a floral display, it should match the tree's theme.
And don't forget the tree skirt, which can be just a piece of fabric with the ends tucked in.


Place decorations in this order:
lights
garland
decorations.


Arrange lights 'inside' your tree (about half-way from the tips of the branches to the trunk of the tree) as well as on the perimeter of the tree.
Mix one of a kind special ornaments with more generic "filler" ornaments.


To make an impact, plan on using about 10 special themed ornaments for every 2 feet of tree.


Create repetition by using a consistent filler ornament on your tree. This is a good way to stretch a growing collection of themed ornaments too.
Plan to use at least a dozen "filler" ornaments for every 2 feet of tree.
Place ornaments and other decorations 'inside' your tree as well as on the tips of branches, to add depth and interest.
