Christmas In July: Tips And Tricks For A Beautiful Tree

Christmas Tree Magic

Have you ever wondered how to get the perfect Christmas tree? I am going to share some tips and tricks that I have picked up or been taught over the years on how to make my Christmas tree look it's best each year.

Always fluff out your branches the best you can. This will create a fuller look. Don't be afraid of any empty spaces, we can fill those later.
Hanging small mirrors inside the tree will help reflect the Christmas lights outward creating the appearance of more lights.
Use a theme to make a tree more interesting and less overwhelming to look at.
To create more depth and fullness in the tree, use ornaments inside the tree, not just on the outer edges, to draw the eyes in futher.
Wrapping empty boxes to place under the tree not only adds decoration, but it gets everyone curious and interested to know what is under your tree this year.
Using multiples of the same ornament to create a main focus within the tree will help showcase the one of a kind ornaments, keeping the tree from being to all random ornaments. So buy the dozen or so round ornaments.
Running lights up and down deeper within the tree will help illuminate the tree from within and add extra sparkle to the mirrors.
Above all, have fun while decorating your tree. Enjoying the process will make it even more fun to showcase with pride. Each tree is a unique work of art.
