trunk.
3.Hang bead garland one-half out from the tree trunk.
4. Run ribbon throughout the tree.
5. Place colored glass bulbs from center to one-third
of the way out
of
tree alternating color.
6.Place a few colored bulbs on the outside of the
tree.
7. Add bows, if desired, at third row from the bottom

from the outside

Oh, Halloween isn’t even here & we’re already talking about Christmas! You guys sound like me! I start thinking about Christmas around June!
🙂 It is my FAVORITE holiday!!! Of course, that may have to do with the fact that my birthday is Christmas Eve, so there are actually 2 big holidays for me right together!!! My husband gets a little annoyed I think because every year I want to decorate earlier & earlier!I’d decorate at the beginning of November if I could!
