Decorating tips & rules
- Make sure your decorations are rain and wind-safe.
- No tree skirts allowed. Wrapped packages or theme decorations at the base are allowed.
- Secure ornaments with zip ties, pipe cleaner, string, or wire — ornament hooks will fall off in the wind.
- Do not use water-soluble glue on ornaments.
- Spray fabrics with Scotch Guard to prevent mildew.
- If spray painting, bring a drop cloth and be mindful of neighbors and wind.
- Outdoor-rated LED lights only.
- No decorations or additional signage in front of the tree except for your Camden House-issued tree sign.
- MOST OF ALL — HAVE FUN!
