Gosh, what better Christmas memories does this make?
Grandma let these two precious grandsons put on as many of the chartreuse ornaments as they wanted.
There may be two or three on the same branch but those can be rearranged later or just left the way they are, especially since those are sweet little hands placing the ornaments.
My daughter is using silver and chartreuse on her living room tree again and we are decorating together.
Plus lots of sparkle
and glitz.
A silver star for the top.
I wanted the lights to show in my pictures so I set the camera on manual and set my IOS setting to a much higher number. I didn't use a tripod but tried to hold the camera very still. You can then brighten/lighten your pictures in Photoshop or any other picture editing program. I always adjust the contrast when I brighten images.
I'm using some photography tips from Courtney at Click It Up A Notch as I take pictures of decorating the tree and my evening picture below.
Here's the tip from her Newsletter that I used on the evening picture above.
1. Turn off ALL the lights but the tree.
You want your house to be pitch black. You want the only lights on are the lights from the tree.
I'm so glad I used Courtney's Tips for my pictures. I am happy with my results - Judy.
