Tree Decor and Christmas in July
It's not too early to start thinking ahead to Christmas. If you have more than one tree to decorate or you are on a tight budget and want a quick and easy idea for decorating your Christmas tree think Christmas cards!
Choose a whimsical, religious, or more than one themed Christmas card. For example, if you want to decorate your tree in a Santa theme, choose a couple of Christmas cards that will coordinate color wise. Both can have Santas on them.
*Punch a hole in the top of the Christmas cards.
*Purchase some wired ribbon, striped, or thin ribbon according to the design you want to achieve. Thread the ribbon through each punched card hole. Then tie a bow.
*Hang each instant ornament on your tree with a Christmas tree hanger.
*Add some snowflake ornaments (handmade or purchased) or other ornaments of your choice.
*Drape ribbon from the top of your tree down the branches to the bottom of your tree. Several times around the Christmas tree.
You can add other accents such as doll or toy batting to each branch to resemble snow. Let your imagine run magical! Voila! You have a beautiful tree both inexpensive to decorate and easy to create!
