Tips On Decorating Christmas Trees
« on: Oct 4th, 2004, 10:27am »


 
What's the best or the most appealing way to decorate christmas trees? I know some people use real pine trees but here in p.i. since it's not that abundant here (it just grow in Baguio I guess?  Huh correct me if I'm wrong) we use artificial ones. Which ones do you prefer? The green ones or the white ones? Do you use a certain motiff or theme yearly or you prefer to mix different colors and stuffs together? etc. etc... post away  Cheesy

Well,  in a way, I'm glad our trees arent real because then we wont be buying trees all the time and there wont be any dried pine tree needles to clean after christmas.  
 
I decorate the tree in our home and there's only one way to achieve the tree of my dreams during christmas ----fill the tree excessively with glittery stuffs like silver and gold to reflect the christmas lights at night but have excessive amounts of large poinsettia red, matted gold and silver ornaments and red bows for daytime when you just cant appreciate the christmas lights. I decorate garishly because  a bare tree is so sad to look at.  
 
Another tip that drives me crazy when its time to take the tree down: I have to have lots of christmas lights to put "inside" the tree (around the stem and under the branches) and lots of christmas lights over the branches to achieve that wonderful,  wonderful christmas tree look.  
 
I wonder though if someone can tell me tips on how to take the tree down with less stress?
 
And lastly, my Christmas colors are: White, Green and Red and smattering gold and silver

May, don't take it done Wink I have a friend who has a fake tree.  It spends the "non christmas season" in his basement fully decorated.  Dec 1. he brings it upstairs and plugs it in...

Artificial trees with the lights already on them are the quickest to set up and decorate. Plus u dont have pine needles all over your house and its not as much as a fire hazard. A real pine x-mas tree will die and not look as good as when u first got it. While a fake pine xmas tree is green for several years. I got a 15 footer up in my attic. Its a bitch to get down. Its a 2 man job but im the only man that brings it down. lol
