I do agree the Christmas baubles and lights etc are a little hard to get in the right place - they seem to work like the birds and clouds - you need to click below where you want to put them

I can't place them on the tree near the bottom of the farm - the decorations 'jump up'. The height is the same every time. 
The decoration is about 2 inches above the cursor - this contributes to the problems with the placement.
I love the decorations!  But please make it easy to use them!
Looking forward to more items like these in future releases |
The Christmas decorations that are made to be added on an item are floating at a higher level. You can see the same thing with the clouds. Instead of looking at the pointer look at the item you are placing and use that as your guide.
Because the pointer can only go so far outside the farm you will not be able to place those items close to the bottom of the farm just as you can't place the clouds close to the bottom.
I hope this helps you to understand how those items work. Main thing is to look at the item rather than the pointer itself. Think of the pointer showing the ground level.
