Last year I had a friend who decorates trees for a living and she pimped out my tree, for free. So this year I attempted it myself. My couple mistakes:
~I let the kids put on all of their ornaments first (on real "fancy" trees kids aren't supposed to touch, thats no fun though)
~Light guns that are supposed to find the lights that are "out" don't work. Eric tried for a hour. So part of the lights don't work, we'll take it in after Christmas.
~I need some gigantic ornaments for next year to tie it all together, I have to wait till after Christmas though when they are cheap.
Things I like:
BOWS, Costco has the most amount of ribbon for best price. I had to practice tying them a bunch of times, to get it right.
Those berry things, they add a nice sparkle.
The picture doesn't do it justice, its pretty good looking, especially for my first attempt.

IT'S BEAUTIFUL!
I think you did a great job!! Way to go. Sorry I've been MIA. I am sicker than a dog!!!
Looks good. I am to picky so I usually get frustrated at it's imperfections, so I have to just walk away and leave it. My sister is awesome at decorating, I steal her ideas.
it's been a while since i last visited you, i have a lot to catch up on! your tree looks great, good job!
