Using Lights in Your Decorating
Lights play a very integral part in decorating. It helps create the ambiance and give your space a unique appearance.1. String Christmas lights
Add a string of lights in a basket, and a pile of Christmas ornaments. Plug the lights in and you have a simple but elegant focal point in a room.
This creates a beautiful glow at nights
2. String Christmas lights
Tie viole strips along the string of lights. Use this on your Christmas tree or as part of your mantel decoration.
Using Candles
1. Wrap candles with beautiful ribbons. Group several wrapped candles together and you have a beautiful center piece.
2. Cut strips of wrapping paper and wrap candles. Again, group several together and you have a beautiful center piece or focal point.
Important: Do not leave candle burning unattended.
Christmas Tree
My tree is up and decorated. I used many of the tips that were included in last week's and this week's post. I used lots of ornaments, ribbons and plastic flowers. I used different shades of blue and gray in this color scheme this year.
Tree with lights. Make sure you add some lights deep inside the tree; this will give your tree some dimension.
Use various shades and sizes of the ornaments in the color scheme.
Ribbons add an elegant touch; pick up a few rolls from the Dollar Tree to add to your tree.
These white poinsettas I got from the Dollar Store. I use these to fill large gaps in the tree.

My tree is complete; as you can see Santa came early to Florida.
