      10 Steps to a Beautiful Tree:

      1. Light and shape tree.
      2. Place tinsel garland one-third out from the tree
      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
      of the tree to
      tie
      in the ribbon. The ribbon should run through the tree
      from the outside
      to two-thirds of the way in the tree.
      8.

      Add decorated ornaments to outside edges and 2″
      from tips
      throughout
      tree.
      9. Specialty ornaments, such as angels, should be
      highlighted. Use
      ornamotion to add movement and bring attention to
      special ornaments.
      10.

      Icicles should be applied as a finishing touch.

      If using tinsel, put at least 3 to 5 strands together
      and arrange
      every
      3 to 5 tips throughout the tree. If using glass or
      acrylic icicles,
      group 3 to 5 throughout the tree in at least 5 to 9 areas.

      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!
