Love the smell of real tree. But with 3 sons with 2 years age difference, we bought an artificial Martha Stewart tree that looks real and have been using artificial trees for the last 17 years. No mess ,easy to put up and take down. I do use fresh greenery for the pots in front of my home.

The one that doesn’t make you sneeze.

I put up my decorations the middle of October! That would mean I would have to buy at least 2 maybe 3 sets of live decor! I go faux to save money and energy! 🎅🏻

Fake.

Fake, easier to put up, and no shedding pine needles, changing water or having to throw the whole thing away at the end of the season. Love the smell of the real thing though!
