Decorating the Tree like a Professional

Have you ever noticed how some trees just sparkle and others look like they have hardly any ornaments on them.  Here is the trick. 

Pick the color theme of your tree.  If you have a tree of all colors, then you can choose a theme.  One of my trees is red and white and silver.  So to decorate this tree I choose red as my dominate color.  Starting on the very inside of the tree, next to the center post, I hang only red ornaments.  They are of medium size, and they are the shiny glass ones, that are inexpensive.  Once you have that whole part covered, stand back and light the tree.  See how shiny it looks.  You can use any color, or combinations of color.  The trick to decorating a tree is to start from the inside and work your way to the outside.  Then use anything you want to make the tree turn into a wonderment of Christmas.

The first time I had a Christmas party moving to Florida, my tree was right in the middle of my room close to the front door.  As one of my friends walked in, she stopped and said"  Oh, Oh, It Looks Like Bloomingdale's".  I have never seen such a beautiful tree.  That was all it took to continue doing trees.

I have collected ornaments every year since I was 18 years old.  I have some of the most beautiful ornaments I think in the World.  As a matter of fact, I have many from different places in the world.

I would like to start a new tree this year, that just has Santa's on it.  I am not sure yet as I am going to put one up for my after Christmas Party, the theme: Feliz Navidad.  I have to start hunting for those things first.  Perhaps, a good idea is to mix it with Santa's.

See just in writing, I have made a decision, a Santa tree, with a little Mexican mixed in.  Perfect!!!!!!!
