Trimming the Tree
When trimming your Christmas tree, think about the wonderful ways you can personalized your decorations. Besides choosing your favorite colors and designs for decorations, be sure to include a touch of your own taste.

Tree trimmings can also be flavored for your geographic region--whether in the winter lands of the mountains or tropical south or elsewhere. Have fun with your Christmas tree trimmings by reflecting where and how you live.

Family and personal decorations, collected through the years, may have special meaning to your loved ones. Ornaments celebrating special milestones like births, anniversaries and trips to foreign lands are wonderful reminders of great times you can enjoy during the season as you view your tree to bring back fun memories.

Don't forget great tradition decorating ideas like bows, lights, pine cones and tinsel. Sometimes you can make these often-used decorations new again by simply using an interesting color or unusual configuration. Spray-painting pine cones, nuts or berries can also lend a unique look to your tree.
