My poor Tree

[GILL]

Just a note for ALL the moms and dads out there from the CREW.
1. always have a cup hook installed in the ceiling.
2. 20-30lb test monofilament fishing line is almost invisible.
This keeps the tree in the up right position.
3. All lights should be battery operated (we have almost 200 on a 4ft tree)
4. Ornaments up to 3 ft off the floor/table should be Styrofoam.
They bounce real nice and the thread covering is fun to chew.
5. All others must be wood or plastic
6. Never have a live tree, that water can make us sick.

This should prevent Groucho the Lawyer from calling


A side note from GILL the lights run on 2 "D" size batteries (per set) and last 24-48 hrs if on continually. I go through 20-40 batteries a season.
