For many of us, we start our Christmas shopping and decorating right after Thanksgiving. Decorating the tree is a very popular family activity during the holidays in many households. We think that the ornaments are what make Christmas trees beautiful, joyful and unique. So we thought we’d share some tips for hanging up your Christmas decorations.
BEFORE YOU HANG YOUR CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS
Decorating your Christmas tree can be a fun activity for the family to enjoy together or a project for someone who loves to do it on their own. Hanging the Christmas ornaments on the tree is one of the most exciting parts of decorating the tree for most people. Before you start hanging your Christmas decorations, we recommend that you hang the lights and garland first. Leave the lights on when you start hanging your jewelry so you can see how things will look when they are lit.
HANGING YOUR CHRISTMAS VIEWS
When it comes to hanging the ornaments on your tree, you will always have a beautifully decorated Christmas tree that you and your family will enjoy if you follow these simple steps.
First, you need to choose your Christmas ornament hangers. Decide whether to use decorative hooks, ribbon, string, or maybe even green florist wire to hang your ornaments. For most people, decorative hooks are the cheapest and easiest way to go. If you have pets or small children, you may want to consider ribbon or string to hang your ornaments (at least on the ones on the lower part of the tree) as they may be less harmful to them if they come into contact with hangers. Currently, all Swarovski Crystal ornaments come with an elegant satin ribbon for hanging.
