It's Christmas!

Hey guys!,
Wow, December has come round VERY quickly (for me anyways) and this blog post is going to be on 'how to put up a Christmas tree' I know everyone knows how to put up a Christmas tree but I just thought I'd show you how I usually do it!:) so here goes!...
 
Step 1:If your Christmas tree is small and you would like it to stand off the ground a little bit you could find a small table, put a cloth or Christmassy tea towel on the table and then put the base/stand on top. If your Christmas tree is tall you might not need to do this!:)
 
 
 
Step 2: Now stand your Christmas tree in the base/stand and make sure it is standing straight as you don't want a lopsided tree!
 
 
 
Step 3: Next add any lights, tinsel, baubles or anything else you would like to decorate your tree with! This picture is a close up of some lights that I put on mine!:)
 
 
 
Step 4: Usually I would put these little Santa decorations on the fire place etc.. but this year I decided to place them under the tree. I thought this looked really cute!:) 
 
 
 
Step 5: This is the final piece! I added my fairy on the top and more baubles and decorations! I took this picture during the day so you can't see the lights that well but this gives you some idea of what it looks like!:)
 
I love our tree this year and I'd love to hear what some of your 'Christmas tree traditions' are! One of mine is that we always have to have a real tree because it just isn't Christmas without a real Christmas tree for me!
Thanks for reading!
Speak soon
