Five tips for creating a beautiful Christmas tree.
These decorating tips will make this year's Christmas tree the most gorgeous yet! Some make the tree decorating process a little easier and all will make it look amazing!
After all these years of assembling and decorating many (many!) trees, I've learned a few tricks! I'm breaking them down so you can put them to use this holiday season.
1. FLUFF it.
If you decorate a fake Christmas tree, you must take a little extra time to fluff the branches. This makes all the difference, it's so worth the time!
Our old basement tree basically snapped in half (more on that later), so we were looking for a new one this year. We lucked out when we found the "viral" Grand Duchess Christmas tree at Home Depot. Since we got it I think I've seen it 862 times on Instagram. 😉
It is really, really beautiful. It has a remote with settings for the Christmas tree lights — the twinkling lights are my favorite!
I kept seeing everyone say that it doesn't need to be fluffed, and I will say I was impressed at how full it was right out of the box:
