👉 Place it in a visible corner near a wall or window.
2️⃣ Prepare the Tree

- Shape branches upward and outward
- Make sure the tree is stable
3️⃣ Add the Lights (First!)
- Use warm white or multicolor lights

- Wrap lights deep inside and then outward
💡 Tip: Use 2–3 strings of lights for a medium tree.

Options:
- Tinsel
- Beaded garlands
- Ribbon (red, gold, silver)
🎀 Wrap loosely from top to bottom in a zigzag or spiral.

- Small ones near the tips
🎨 Use a color theme:
