When it comes to Christmas decorations on a tree, I believe that less is more. I admire those trees with just the right number of ornaments on them, each surrounded by enough space to showcase the individual ornament in all its glory. Ideally, the most ornaments a tree should hold is a couple of dozen; this keeps the tree from looking cluttered. Simplicity is elegant.
My tree has about two or three hundred ornaments on it. We don't do elegance for the holidays around my house, we do overkill.
