The Christmas Tree Chronicles...The Truth About Ornaments.

I finally got to put up my christmas tree, and it is the most beautiful tree in all the land. You see, the truth about christmas tree ornaments is that you can never, and I mean never, have enough. First, you must start with the lights, and decorating the Christmas Tree is all about layering. My tree was pre-lit, but I did feel the need to add 110 pink mini bulbs to it. Then you may begin with the garland... tinsel first, following with the beads, and if you have pearls (and every elegant tree should have a few strands of pearl garland) they go next. Then you may begin with your favorite ornaments, starting with the most favorite, and ending with the least favorite. We do this because we must find the best spots for all the good ornaments... you wouldn't want to sacrifice a good ornament spot for a mediocre ornament. Now, you may only continue to the last step once you feel as though you ABSOLUTELY CANNOT find another branch to hang an ornament on, because at this point you know you have at least a sufficient amount on the tree (although it is impossible to have enough or too much. Once you have come to this you may begin inserting what we call "fillers" these can be little bows, plain ball ornaments, sprigs, etc,... Now, you might have a presentable tree, but a "sparse" tree is never good. Say "NO" to "sparse." Resist the temptation of lazy tree decorating. Don't forget your tree topper!
The picture DOES NOT do it justice...



P.S. My mother and I will be returning to Hobby Lobby shortly, and I plan to thoroughly investigate the cuteboyrandy situation. Goodday.
