Traditional Christmas Tree Decorating Ideas with Light
These tips will show you how to make your Christmas tree glow beautifully in your living room.
- Before you buy lights, measure the tree. This will ensure that you have enough light to cover the entire tree. Mini lights typically require 100 to 140 square feet of tree space. If the tree is 6-10 feet long, you can get 600-1500 mini-lights.
- Choose the type of Christmas lights that you would like to include.
- You can choose from large bulbs, icicles, battery-operated candle lights, mini-string lights, or a combination.
- Plan on how to hang the Christmas lights on the tree – vertically/horizontally. Decorators generally recommend that string lights be turned vertically (top to bottom) as it reduces the risk of them falling and makes them easier to take apart. It also looks neater. To create depth and visual interest, place the lights inside the branches.
