Christmas is around the corner again and it comes around so soon after thanksgiving it sometimes seems; especially if your pocket is yet to recover from spending for the Thanksgiving celebrations. To help you decorate your tree this Christmas in a cheap but chic fashion, just go out there and buy a roll or two of wire re-enforced ribbons. This is the type of ribbon that is usually put on wreaths. Cut the roll of ribbon into strips of ribbon about two feet in length each. Cut as many as you’d like and tie these strips into bows now put some safety pins at the back of each bow and use these pins to place these bows all over your tree.

Gold colored ribbons add a touch of class to your tree. In addition to these bows, get out your can of gold spray paint and paint your popcorn strings gold before using to decorate your tree. An additional benefit you’ll get from spraying your popcorn gold is that it becomes unattractive for ants and will save you from insect trouble. If you have young children you have to be careful to warn them not to eat the spray painted popcorn. You also have to spray paint your popcorn strings outside the house. When you combine the gold colored ribbons with the gold colored popcorn just stand back and watch your Christmas tree glow with a golden warmth. You can still add to the effect by adding your old lights and you’ll have a brand new tree in your home.
