I don't know you but I'm pretty sure you have one of those regal looking firs decked out in ornamental balls and twinkling lights in your living room right? How about trying something different this year? Extend yuletide cheer to the rest of the neighborhood by setting up mini lighted outdoor christmas trees-you'll be the most popular house in the street.
These little glittering specimens lining up the path leading to your home are gorgeous looking in the day. As soon as dusk settles into night, they are going to be downright spectacular looking I guarantee you. Expect open mouthed stares and compliments to greet you on your way out the door.
You can get artificial or live miniature trees. It might be a bit challenging to get live trees of the same size and shape but you can go through several christmas tree shops that have a wider selection. Decorate them in small white worm lights and fasten bright garlands of tinsel or mistletoes around the branches of the tree. For the risk takers out there, spray paint the whole lot of them with glow in the dark paint or a sheen of metallic color to get people talking even more.
Artificial trees will end up saving you more money if you plan to use them for several more Christmases. Plan your theme and buy the appropriate lights for it. You can get lights of all colors, shapes and sizes-complementing your tree will not be a problem. Wind these flashing strands around the boughs making sure it is spaced as evenly as possible. Hang up attractive accessories and fix it in place with tape or glue.
Take extra precautions with your outdoor decorations so you will still be able to use them for the years to come. Avoid using breakable ornaments, weather conditions can work against you with this. Wrap the trunk of the tree with strong ropes and pole it through the ground firmly. You wouldn't want them flying all around the street do you? You can also cover these sometimes unsightly ropes with taped gift wrapped boxes (fake presents) under the tree.
You are about to go to the christmas tree shops to make your purchase, have you looked around your yard to see where these miniature trees will be best placed? The spot should have a power outlet nearby so christmas lights can be plugged in easily. Make certain that the extension cords are covered safely to avoid the danger of people tripping on them accidentally. If you cannot cover them, at least have a sign to warn passersby of it.
Pre-lighted trees are also being sold on some specialty sites online. In purchasing these little gems, you will have the convenience of a battery operated, often timer controlled displays that will not endanger passersby with extension cords that they can trip on. They are also quite attractive. View them online and if you like what you see, the virtual store can have it delivered right to your doorstep.
Once upon a time you had an appreciative audience of family and friends-now your Christmas spirit, as expressed through your beautiful decorations, will be felt by a much larger group of people. You may not personally know everyone of them, but they will know your heart and be blessed by it. Have yourself a Merry Christmas!
