[@dorydisney4158]

I've been fighting with lighting my tree for TWO days 😡. I had enough and so did my husband (i growel louder than the Christmas music)! So I decided to give in to watch more KZbin videos, despite all have failed and frustrated me in the past! I wanted my tree to be a bright "light" in my living room! 💡YOU ❤❤❤ just made it happen! 😇

[@Chris-lc4bo]

My whole life ( I'm 70) I have been doing it the old fashion way. I have hated the dark center of the tree. Then I came across your video, I am going to do this on my tree this year. Thank you!

Your method is the one I've used for over 30 years. I have been a floral designer for almost 40 years, and was hired to set up trees for business as well as individuals. After I retired and moved down to NW Arkansas, It was a joy for me to participate in the Victorian Homes Christmas Tour in Eureka Springs in 2000.

[@LostFoundDecor]

Glad to hear it’s a tried and true method :) I love Eureka… I bet that home tour is amazing!!

[@SugarSugarCreek]

That sounds awesome! I worked for a floral designer in Cleveland who also decorated for Victorian homes and the White house. He's in his 90's now and of course no longer does that but still works in his shop in Lakewood Ohio. Would love to see the homes you did❤️

[@LaLavender25]

WOW great job! I’m here in 2022 about to TRY THIS NOW! 🎄🎄🎄

[@cecegirl4327]

very cool! I love victorian styles. Do you have any floral designs tips to make a victorian era arrangement?

[@80Talina]

How many lights do you have so it covers the entire tree?

[@RoySATX]

Our mothers must have gone to the same tree-lighting school or something, my mom was also VERY PICKY about everything having to do with tree decorating as well and taught me the exact same method. It wasn't until I was fifteen she let me do the lights myself, I got to fluff the tree by myself at 16, and got to help with the ornaments my last year at home! Every year thereafter I made a point of helping her when I was home for Thanksgiving, it was for me the best day of the year because Mom and I would spend the whole day together, doing something we both loved doing with someone we loved. Sadly, she passed away when I was 28 years old. I'm now 58, and every year for the past 30 years I still put up the tree just like my mom did, and I even had a little helper myself for a precious time. Nowadays my home is quiet and dark for most of the year, just me and my memories. For those I'm deeply grateful, every day. And come Thanksgiving Day I'll brighten my home just like always, it's time well spent and for which I'm always thankful. Merry Christmas, Y'all. Now go spend some time with the ones you love.

I also do my tree like this and if I might add another tip I’ve used the last 3 years and absolutely love it is to add one string of twinkle lights first deep in the tree. Since it’s in the middle near the trunk it’s not obnoxious but just the right amount of twinkle along with the regular lights.

[@LostFoundDecor]

So glad! You’ve got this 💪🏼

[@drew7155]

Let me add a few tips: if you can fold each row at a time, bottom row up, it's helpful to do one row at a time while the other higher rows stay folded up out of the way. Also, It's perfectly okay to cut corners on the bottom and middle rows of the sides that are against a wall not easily visable. On those rows, instead of going all the way up and down each branch, you can loosely go up one branch, and loosely go down the next. Just be mindful of which sides will be viewed from an observers vantage point. I promise, it is completely unnoticeable from the face sides. And, it not only saves time and effort, but also cuts out unnecessary light strings that cost money and can fail.

[@zerlinawright7591]

Great first tip 😊However, I have a rotating tree stand so the second one is out for me🤣 I’m so extra so I don’t mind the extra work.😊this year I’m adding 8 rotating ornaments and I have a black Christmas tree. So since you can’t use led string lights with the rotating motors and I wanted cool white. I brought iridescent string lights just for the rotating ornaments. So, I had to spray paint the string lights black so they don’t interfere with my cool white lights. Do you know anything about that? Or an easier way I could have done that?

[@deniseharden738]

Thanks for confirming what I was thinking. I have a Balsam Hill tree that came with red cords to tie up each section. Usually, I release each section as I insert it into the main pole but, watching this video, I realized that I can string the lights one section at a time, while keeping the other sections neat, tied up and out of the way. Can't wait to add my lights this year!

Thank you for the refresher course! This is how my Mom showed me how to do it 40ish ago when i was a teenager. I've had a prelit tree that I love for over a decade and we are beyond done replacing 50+ individual lights every year to get it lit only to have a row go out right before Christmas. Replacing the fuses did not help. I did not want to lose my gorgeous tree so we took off all the old lights and are going back to restringing it this year. Excited to actually get a few more lights on to make it even more gorgeous!

New Sub here! That's an awesome tree and I'm with you, I wouldn't get rid of it for a pre lit tree. I have a $1,400 17 foot pre- lit monster and although I have a light fixer, it now has issues with those lights so..... I'm putting lights on it this year, but really my point is....I agree, a pre lit tree isn't all that lol. I was tempted to get a new one when I saw all the new fancy amazing trees at home depot and thought nope! I have this perfectly beautiful tree, so this year I'm just going to add lights and maybe fix it next year or take the old pre lit lights off all together. I'm glad you made this video because there are lots of young people with their first time "living on their own" trees and it's helpful to both young and people who want to learn a new way!
