How to properly dress up a Christmas tree?

Well well! - you will say. That in this you need to adhere to some rules and follow certain rules? Why not? Did you know that in 1937, the People's Commissariat of Education developed and published a manual "Christmas tree in kindergarten," which described in detail and prescribed which Christmas tree toys on which branches it is necessary to hang.

Well of course this fact refers to the costs and inflections of that time and now it looks funny enough, but as they say: "... that was, it was." And if we talk seriously, but approach this issue systematically and in places even scientifically, then there are some rules.

Before decorating the Christmas tree, you need to climb into the boxes, where your last year's and last year's Christmas decorations lie and make an inventory: remember what to eat, see what's broken, remember what you wanted last year to buy in the next year and what to throw away. If necessary, visit the Christmas decorations shop .

When the issue with toys is solved, proceed to install a forest beauty (that is, a Christmas tree). In this case, in general, it is desirable to comply not so much with the rules of aesthetics, as with safety techniques (and fire safety in particular). It is not recommended to install the Christmas tree near the heating appliances. It is necessary to securely fasten the Christmas tree, using a stable mount (tripod, cross, bucket with sand).

Next, go to dressing up. First put on an electric garland. In this case, it is advisable not to use self-made or cheap Chinese illuminations, and also to check their performance in advance.

The next stage is the placement of various Christmas decorations. Everyone chooses and decorates Christmas-tree toys in their own way, however, there are some points that should be taken into account. To exclude the effect of absurdity, it is not advisable to hang small toys on a large Christmas tree, but small ones on big ones. After hanging the Christmas balls, you can leave the room for a few minutes, and then go back and reassess how you hung these balls.

Since the average tree or pine has a pyramidoid shape and is usually installed by the base (wide part) on the floor, it's worthwhile to hang toys of a smaller size on its upper (and therefore thinner) part, and the size of toys can increase to the bottom.

The top of the tree can be decorated with a spire, a red star or a Bethlehem star, depending on your beliefs or preferences. That's it. Now around the forest beauty you can dance a round dance (if it does not stand in a corner), tell poems (standing on a stool), or put gifts under it.
