| Decorating Your Christmas Tree Our Christmas tree provides us with a long standing and universal holiday tradition- which is also individual as no two trees are exactly alike! Your tree will look best with a balance of texture, shape, size and color- but with one theme being dominant. Begin decorating by first establishing symmetry- put on the most dominant &/or largest number of ornaments. |

| • Hang shiny finished, bright colors, and larger ornaments first before matte finished, muted, • and smaller ornaments. • Place dominant colored glass, mirrored, or metal ornaments in your tree’s interior to show depth. • Repetition helps to establish your theme- use the same color, texture, shape ornaments. • Use garlands, swags, bows, ribbon cascades in one color or pattern. • Use one basic motif- folk, religious, romance, natural, juvenile, Santa, etc. • For a formal look, hang similar ornaments, fruit, flowers, or bows at peaks of garland swags. • Ensure ornaments are hanging freely and not touching tree branches- cluster several for • a dramatic effect. • Combine different colors, sizes, or shapes on one hook (or tie together) and place • symmetrically over tree. • Finish by covering the base of your tree with a tree skirt. |
