Day 6: Jewel-Toned

Introduce a fresh color scheme to your holiday decorations (we chose cranberry, robin's egg blue, and chocolate), and repeat the colors for maximum sparkle.

Tip: Before adding ornaments, look at the lit tree at night so it's easier to see where you need to add or take away a strand.
