Every year, cities, towns, and homes transform into joyful scenes in celebration of Christmas. A sea of lights line rooftops and fences and drape over surrounding shrubs. Wreaths and statuesque nutcrackers decorate doorways. Carolers' soft hymns swirl through the air. But perhaps the biggest, most cherished part of the holiday season is the beloved Christmas tree.
If you’ve decorated a Christmas tree before, you may have realized that there’s a sort of science to it. Should lights be strung before or after ornaments? How do I hang a garland so it doesn’t look frumpy? Where’s the best spot in the home to place a Christmas tree? Can I even fit a Christmas tree in my space?
We’re here to answer all those questions; this guide will share everything you need to know about how to decorate a Christmas tree.
