fake or real??

[feeb]

Fake as easier and tidier!!

Always had fake growing up apart from 1st year living in Australia, when we were given a real one and as nice as it was ouch ouch pins in feet and mum said never again!!

Ohhh I love real ones. The smell, and imperfectness...however - dh was the one who had to squeeze it in the car, and put it up and then take it down and get rid of it...and since he's the one who actually does the Christmas tree, he wants what is easier for him, which is fair enough! Helps that he grew up with a fake one...whereas I grew up with a real one and ohhhh that smell. Mmmmm...

fake it cost us $10 lol its my first christmas tree since living here last year we werent here for chrissy

Real here! Never had a real one till DH, initially we had the fake one, but then we found a Christmas tree farm where you could go and pick your own. Thankfully we found another farm down this way when we moved. So now it is a little Christmas ritual each year to go and pick the tree. Each year it is the same thing, me going one that the tree is too big and DH going ahead anyway. Then we get this HUGE tree, that he suddenly admits when we get it home that it was too big.

I have no issue with the mess. The only thing is that decorations need to have a string, rather than the small metal loop, other wise they cannot be hung.

we have a fake one only because i have to put up my tree by the 1st and i dont think it would last! and the thought of spiders ......

Fake though we had a real one once

[boomba]

We always had a real one!
They were so funny most years...they never looked like the ones in the movies ...they would have 4 or 5 big branches and they would go brown within a couple of days but the smell was beautiful.

We now have a big fake one!

somone should invent christmas tree smell in a can x

Fake for the last few years. Always used to have a real one, but I was over the mess and then having to get rid of it after Christmas.

Fake. I don't like the thought of killing perfect trees and I don't like that they turn brown anyway.
