Ways to Decorate Your Tree
2 min readBy Summer Adams
Christmas time means getting together with friends and family to decorate the family tree. Some families may do more traditional decorating by just producing a color theme or putting family made ornaments up, others may come up with intricate and over the top themes and that’s what this article will focus on.
Many people may decide to go with a Christmas movie theme for their tree like The Christmas Story or How the Grinch Stole Christmas. These would catch the eyes of people passing by any windows this Christmas season. Not only are these creative ways to bring your favorite Christmas movie into your home, but it’s also a fun way to get the whole family involved in decorating the tree.
Another fun theme to do is a movie franchise theme like Star Wars. This may help involve the people that aren’t super into the Christmas season and may even help put them in the spirit by seeing their favorite franchise decked out in Christmas gear.
When asking Aaron Warner, a student in the welding program, he said, “I’ll probably be decorating like I do every year with ornaments and candy canes.” When asked Aiden Faiella, a student in Allied health, said that he’ll be buying new lights and that it’s his turn to hide the pickle (a German tradition).
Whether doing a traditional theme this year or something out of the ordinary, decorating the tree is a part of most people’s family tradition and a fun way to get everyone together.
