So.
NEVER ADJUST THE TREE WHEN THERE ARE BOTTLES INSTALLED!
I was installing a new one for my wife, and thought I'd stomp it down just a little bit firmer in the ground...the bottles bounced on the metal posts, and I found myself in a shower of broken glass.
Since it was cold and I was wearing heavy clothing, no damage was done, but it really got my attention!
