Fake tree making its last stand |
A few years ago we bought one of those fake trees that we’ve put up during the holidays.
We used to cut one down and bring it home, but I don’t think our youngest child minds the tree being fake:
I’m curious what kind of trees, for those who celebrate, you put up? Fake or real?
Did this post make you go hmm?

Fake all the way. The smell of DOuglas Fir or whatever live tree it is, gives myself and the kids allergies for whatever reason.

[…] Wait, that’s a picture of last year’s Christmas tree. You can see the 2005 tree here (surprise, surprise, it’s the same tree). What’s up with that? So what video game did I wake up wanting to play? Well, the game we got to open last night on Christmas Eve, of course: […]

I don’t know much about the christmas tree market, Betty, except that it is probably very seasonal, but I believe in good products and marketing. So if you have a good product that fits a niche and you can market it well then you should do well. Best of luck to you

[…] Every year in November we put up a Christmas tree. We used to go and get a real tree but have since moved onto fake trees that can be assembled and dissembled in minutes. No pine needles everywhere, a smaller fire hazard, less hassle. Yeah, we’re missing the smell. […]

I like only real trees and try to avoid fake trees. I encourage everyone to grow real trees and help to reduce the pollution. thanks.
