I absolutely love to decorate trees…any season will do! You mostly see my Christmas trees, but TODAY, I want to share how I decorated a tree for HALLOWEEN! I am so obsessed with how this tree turned out, and it is full to the brim with goodness- which is exactly how I like it!!
So, my tree is just a little ole rinky dinky cheap black tree that I got on clearance a while back…but that doesn’t matter because I am going to show you how to make it look like a designer tree with my tree decorating strategy that never fails me, along with ALL of my amazing Halloween finds from Decorator’s Warehouse.
(oh yeah, and that white? That is just dollar tree “spider web”!)
I always start with my ribbon first. You can also reference this Christmas tree decorating blog for another detailed tutorial involving the ribbon in particular, if you need extra assistance! I start at the top and work my way down, pinching the branches around the puffs of ribbon and weaving them in and out of the tree! If it is thicker ribbon, I usually only need 1…but since this is not as thick, I used 2 to make it look a little fuller!
After I have added all of my ribbon around the tree, I take my biggest pieces and stick them around the tree. I also like to think outside of the box in this area, adding in things that are not necessarily “ornaments” or made for a tree. This brings a lot of extra fun and pizazz to your tree!!!
Once I have my bigger items placed around the tree, I take all my picks and put them everywhere! I do the top first and then fill in the rest with the remaining. Picks are HUGE in giving your tree that boutique/designer style!
Now, we get to the actual ornaments LOL. I fill in any empty spots with regular ornaments, even overlapping sometimes…because hey- MORE IS MORE! 馃榾
And….here is the finished product!
This first picture is at night all lit up! How CUUUUUTE is this?!?!
And during the day!!
How stinking’ CUTE is this fun Halloween tree?! Isn’t it amazing how it looks now? And this took me MAYBE 30 minutes total! It is just a 6 foot tree, but still! I am just obsessed with Decorator’s Warehouse. You have heard me talk about them a ton, but they truly are one of my very places to shop for holiday decor, especially Halloween and even more so- CHRISTMAS!!!!! If you haven’t checked them out, I highly recommend you to do that! I shop online, but I got the opportunity to shop in person once and was in HEAVEN!聽
