When it comes to decorating the Christmas tree every season, we all want to do our best. Not out of competition but it is just the spirit of the season that fills us and makes us want to make every moment of the festivity count.
We understand how you want your tree to be the centerpiece of your home each season. But if you’re unsure about decoration ideas for your artificial Christmas trees, we have some fabulous ideas for you below.
1. First- Buy a High-Quality Tree
Artificial Christmas trees these days feature the most premium quality of materials. From being long-lasting to well-balanced, robust and durable, these make decoration an easy feat for everyone. You can choose a very traditional one or a trendier one, such as pre-lit trees.
Regardless of what you have, the only thing you need to ensure is that it has excellent features, especially strong and robust branches and firm uprightness.
2. Give the Branches some Love
The most common mistake people make is failing to shape and fluff out the branches before they begin decorating. Due to this, the tree does not look as full and natural as it should. While it may be time consuming, it is also necessary to fan out each branch to its maximum capacity.
3. Put the Lights First
If your artificial tree is not a prelit one, it means that you will have to take care of the lighting yourself. In this case, soon after you have spread out and shaped the tree’s branches, you must place the light strings next.
The best rule from the experts for lighting is to add five metres or hundred bulbs of blight for every two feet of your tree. So supposing you have a tree that is six feet tall, then you’d need around fifteen metres or three hundred bulbs for lights.
4. Pick a Central Theme
We all want a professional looking tree for our homes every season, don’t we? The trick to that is simply selecting a central theme to tie your decorations into a cohesive look. For this, you need to be a little proactive and think of theme before you choose your decorations for the year.
This way, you’d know what decorations to line up in advance before the season rolls by. For example, you could settle for a renaissance theme or opt for Japanese art for the coming festive season.
5. Decorations must coordinate with Your Theme
Remember we talked about pulling a cohesive look? That can only happen if you pick accents that align with your overall theme. Whether it’s your floral décor, the ribbons, garlands or ornaments, complementing them with your theme pulls off an overall artistic look.
