8 Christmas Decorating Tips

8 Christmas Decorating Tips

8 Must Know Christmas Decorating Tips

1- Set aside 5-7 large ornaments when decorating your Christmas tree. Wait a day or two then add the saved ornaments to your tree in the evening when it is dark outside. Waiting a few days will give you the opportunity to notice places on your tree that you don’t particularly like (don’t be afraid to move things around a bit). Redecorating in the dark, with only the Christmas tree lights on, will help you to see the darkest (therefore the most bare) parts of the tree.

2- Buy a premade Christmas bow (or make your own), attach a long piece of coordinating ribbon and hang on the wall for an almost instant card holder.

3- Use metal clips to attach lightweight Christmas ornaments to the tree. The clips give you the freedom to put bows, flowers, etc. almost ANYWHERE, even on a real tree that has flimsy branches.

4- Roughly cut a large piece of burlap to put under your nativity scene. Or, use garland, lights and bright red poinsettias to showcase the stable in Bethlehem.

5- Decorate in Odds. Groups of 3,5, or 7 will always look more pleasing than groups of 2,4 or 6 (for example, my tree has 3 large snowman hats. If there were 4 it may look like a poor attempt to balance the tree. The idea with a christmas tree is for everything to look rather random).
 
6- Don’t be afraid to put something LARGE on your tree. Remember the rule of odds and place 3, 5, or 7 large objects evenly around the tree.  Think outside the glass balls!

7- Even a simple premade bow mixed with a bit of curling ribbon will do wonders to jazz up a present.

8- Pay attention to the floor around the Christmas tree. Add something big and bulky to help connect the tree to the rest of the room (Especially if your tree has a large space between the floor and the bottom branch). Try a large snowman, a Santa Clause, some reindeer, a small forest of trees, or beautifully wrapped boxes.
