Tips & Ideas

Guidelines, Tips, and Ideas
For Tree and Wreath Decorators

  • Decorations should be non-breakable if at all possible.
  • Please wire or attach decorations and/or lights securely so trees can be transported safely to the buyer.
  • A tree skirt is required (can be something simple to compliment the theme or something elaborate)
  • Decorating materials should be flame retardant or noncombustible. Please do not use living materials or unwrapped food. Degradable products like food or candy must be coated and sealed.
  • If gifts are included with your tree, please provide a detailed list including approximate values on provided tree sponsor form.

The minimum decorative values:
7 ft. Tree - $500
Wreath - $50

Consider a gift certificate or tickets that coincides with the theme of the tree. Please do not actually attach any certificates to the tree, place them in an envelope and give them to one of the set-up volunteers on set-up day so that they can be placed in a lockbox for safe keeping.
