After delivery, stand your tree upright and carefully bind any loose limbs. As you can see, it came equipped with bar bells already inserted. I have more for hanging extra ornaments. Also, while a pretty red ribbon will do the same job, I use a rough, heavy twine as I prefer to listen to the soft, quiet sounds of my tree trying to scratch its itchy parts after it has been hanging for awhile...

Decorate the more sensitive areas of your tree first. Decorative bar bells can be inserted for later use as supports for hanging decorations...

The use of push-pins and special rounded clips helps to hold your ornaments in place. As you can see, the decorative bar-bells are easily accessed for hanging extra ornaments...

Carefully massaging the decorated area helps to desensitize your tree to pinpricks and allows your tree to feel more appreciated...

A good, sturdy support is recommended to help keep your tree in an upright position...

More push-pins can be used, depending on how accommodating your tree is...

Adding a halo is a nice touch...

Anyway, you get the idea. You can finish the rest of your tree in any manner you desire. There is lots of material for hanging more ornaments if you have them. I prefer the keep the lower parts free so that friends and family members may enjoy my exotic, special-order Xmas tree for the rest of the season. (Xmas tree lights are not recommended as they tend to destabilize the tree due to localized heat problems.)

Of course, you can always order your Special Exotic Xmas Tree prepackaged and already decorated like the one below. Then all you have to do is take it out of the package, unfold it and stand it upright. But what's the fun of that?
