Tip of the Day: A Couple of Helpful Suggestions for Christmas Tree Decorating

This upcoming weekend I will be putting up my personal Christmas tree. Over the years, I have learned a couple of best practices that I thought I would share with everyone.

First, if you plan on using a tree topper, put the tree topper on first! This is counter-intuitive to how many people decorate their tree. The reason for placing the tree topper first is to lessen the risk of knocking off or breaking ornaments while attempting to put the tree topper on. Since the degree of difficulty in placing the tree topper goes up with the height of the tree, this becomes even more important with trees over ten feet in height.

Second, wrap any tree garland immediately after the tree topper is set. Again, this is for the same reason. If you place it before the ornaments go on, there is less risk of knocking off or breaking ornaments while wrapping the garland around the tree.
