Decorators’ Guidelines
When your group of star decorators plan your tree, keep in mind the objective of getting as high a bid as possible. Trees that have done well in the past have had a very clever theme, or been uniquely beautiful in design. Creativity is the key!
We will have two types of trees available, courtesy of Washougal River Christmas Trees. You may reserve a six foot noble or a three foot table top noble. You’re also free to donate your own. The trees will include stands. Specific trees and locations are assigned on a random basis. You will have a label with your name on your tree when you arrive to decorate.
You’ll have a chance to decorate your tree on Thursday, December1, from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM. If you bring pre-schoolers, please make arrangements for them to be supervised.
Unbreakable ornaments are required, with the caps glued on, because the buyer will need to transport the tree after the festival is over. The tree will be shrink-wrapped for ease of transportation. All items on the tree, including lights and other decorations, must be wired to the tree using pipe cleaners, zip ties, floral wire, etc.
Tree Skirt/Stand covering
Decorators are required to furnish a tree skirt or other covering material for the base of their tree. This can be as simple as a piece of fabric or an elaborate skirt. Please use materials and designs that are not difficult to move – consider the delivery process when making your selection.
Tree Lights
At the festival, power will be supplied to the base of your tree. Use of LED lights is required. You do not need to provide a power strip, and flat household extension cords may not be used. Use new (UL-approved) light strings and lights that are independent of each other, so that if one light burns out, the rest stay on. A useful rule of thumb is approximately two (2) light strings per each foot of tree. Do not use old lights.
– Large outdoor lights are prohibited (large indoor lights are acceptable)
– Everything attached to or under the tree will go to the highest bidder!
