Step 1

Set up the tree, plug it in and fluff all the branches to make it as full as possible.

Step 2

Start by adding the floral stems for your Christmas tree. Tuck in velvety eucalyptus and magnolia leaves in soft tones and add pampas and sprays of white; then transition down the tree.
TIP: Champagne toned palm stems work wonderfully to transition the floral. Place them under the topper and throughout the tree. Use the floral stems in rows down the tree at an angle this creates a texture blocked look. To do this use berry stems, pampas, pastel eucalyptus, poinsettias, hydrangeas etc.

Step 3

Bend the stems to create the best movement with the tree shape. Also make sure the stems are not poking out the other side.

Step 4

Now, add in large, oversized ornaments. Tuck them deep into the branches.

Step 5

Use floral wire to hang five shatterproof smaller-sized pastel balls onto your tree to create a cluster of ornaments. Use the wire to attach them to the tree.

Step 6

Add specialty ornaments to make the tree personal.
TIP: Don’t forget to add a lush tree skirt under the tree and use matching ribbon tones with texture to wrap presents under the tree.
