Christmas Tree?

[MissAnn]

What kind do you put up? I keep buying cheapo ones that look awful. They are really small and sit on a table. This year I decided to get a taller one....maybe 4 feet. I just don't have room! My dh brought one home last night....another cheapo one that look awful after 2 years. He's not happy I don't want it. It was nice of him....but I'm pretty sure he just looked to see what was the cheapest and bought it. It's only 2 feet tall and cost $10. ugh....can't we do better that for once? I asked him if he looked at the display and he said no. Tell me what you have or suggest!

I have two trees, a slim 7ft tree for the family room on the main level, and a big full 8ft tree in the lower level. We bought the big full tree one year right after Thanksgiving when we realized the old prelit tree we had had seen its final days. We got it at Walmart and it was one of the less expensive big trees, $80, and it is one of those trees that you have to put on each branch individually, but it is the most beautiful tree we have ever owned. Our slim tree is prelit, and I don't love the tree, but it looks okay when it is all decorated.

We have a fake one that I love, 7 ft, have had it for 6 years maybe. In our now home, the top doesn't fit BUT I still love it. It's got menories attached and the rest of it is beautiful, !

We have a fake one thats about 5-6ft. Its been in storage for a few years since we dont have a lot of space. so Im not sure how its going to look when we pull it out! I did buy some extra garland to help fill in some of the gaps & make it look fuller.

I wish I had a fake one. I used to love the idea of cutting one down and doing the whole family thing. but since that's a thing of the past now and cut trees here are about $40, I'd love a fake one now. My dds told me if I got a fake tree, they wouldn't come home. I'm sure they were joking. I think.

I have a fake one about 5 feet. Last year I had a small gate around it but this year I redid my layout so am able to put it in a corner where the kids can't get to it. We took pictures by the tree last year and I printed it out for the parents to have. They loved it. May do something similar this year.

You can get cut trees for $40? Wow! Ours cost about $125. We bought a nice fake one for $400, and figured it wouldn't take too long to recoup the costs.

I bought a 7 1/2 foot fake tree two years ago after Christmas. It looked beautiful last year. As much as I love real trees, I hate having to water and vacuum every day.

[daycarediva]

we get a real one, we always get a 6ft potted tree and plant it in spring (yes, leaving it indoors all winter/spring) It's around $75.

I LOVE real trees, but we just can't afford the $75-$150 price tag every year. Mow we have a nice fake one that is 7 feet tall and pre lit. We got it for $60ish 3 years ago. I do wish we didn't have to gate it off.

I have a 6.5 foot fake tree it's about 6 years old. We will be getting a seconed one (7.5 foot) cause we changed spaces and the old one looks short in yhe room. Then we will move this guy to our family room in the basment. (Upstairs will be my good looking tree and downstairs will be a family ornament homemade ornament tree.
I also do a felt tree with felt ornaments in the daycare room. The kids love rearranging the decorating on it.

I think I have the same 8 ft Walmart tree. I don't mind putting the branches on individually, because I I like to wrap each branch with lights from the inside out. I've been happy with this tree!

I love love love the smell and couldn't imagine the holidays without one.
