I ended up with about 12-16 bunches and wove floral tape to bind the ends of the bunches together. I slip them into bare areas of our prelit tree. They add such a pretty sparkle to our tree.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09077007250951186874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-73478612668482752572017-12-06T16:39:14.383-05:002017-12-06T16:39:14.383-05:00I lurve the vertical ribbon!!

I started doing the sparkly stuff when you posted it a few years ago. And we don't have a topper on our big tree either. Honestly, no one has even noticed. Big-fat-heart-eyes love your tree!!!

A huge roll costs around $20 at Lowes. I wrap them up and then stick them in one of the guest room closets. It takes me about 30 - 45 minutes to put up all three of my tress...that includes the re-fluffing time. Such a timesaver!Leiahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03597966153972020326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-30257297831827115022017-12-05T13:37:55.931-05:002017-12-05T13:37:55.931-05:00Beautiful!

One thing my cousin shared with me was hanging clusters of 2 or 3 ornaments way in on the branches. It not only fills the spaces so the tree is no longer see-through, but I also add lights further in so there's additional reflection! This has worked really well.Guerrina Waters-Hernandezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03607898986794228604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-38548442147823090752017-12-05T11:29:56.148-05:002017-12-05T11:29:56.148-05:00We always cut a real tree at the tree farm.

I check the water twice daily and we usually have a nice firm tree until Christmas Day, then on Jan. 2 it goes out for recycling. On a real tree, those fancy ornament hangers from Michael's are beautiful - they really stand out! Next year we will do traditional green and red - this year we did shades of blue, sparkly gold, and white lights.Rustown Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12970069327566577570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-1098063857173412242017-12-05T10:30:11.407-05:002017-12-05T10:30:11.407-05:00GORGEOUS!!!

Your home looks so cozy, I just love it. ps if you're looking for window treatments you should visit Country Curtains - they are going out of business and are offering great deals. I've been investing in new drapes for almost every room in my house, plus some bedding.
