5 Simple Ways to Decorate Your Tree
4. Decorate the tree
Start by wrapping a ribbon around the tree. Keep ample space between each twirl or else your tree will end up looking tacky. Next, add the smaller decorations around the tree. Hang some colorful balls, some of those bead garlands and a few small bells. Next you can put up the lights around the tree. You could either wrap your entire tree in a stream of lights, or only add them in bits across the tree. Once again, keep it minimal.
5. Give the finishing touch
Your tree is almost ready. All you need to do now is add a star or an angel or any other tree-topper at the top of the tree. If you still want to take it a step ahead, add some candles around the base of where you place your tree. You can also put some small stands and tie ribbons across them. Your simple and elegant Christmas tree is ready for the show.
