our tree is two feet tall and fiber optic. WOW.

it's my roomates, and they think it looks nice, but DUDE, first of all its a TINY ass fake tree in a terra cotta pot. Secondly, it looks EFFING tacky.. ugh. not that i have any say it in, oh I KNOW, It def is MY house too, but to these people that fact is of no consequence.

PS- my man and i are goin to my folks for christmas anyway...thank god my parents always go cut down their own tree (i.e. that means its real!) and it will smell lovely! yay.

Back in the day I used to have to hike up a mountain in the snow and cut down my own tree if I wanted one.

When we moved to the biiiiiiig city I bought a fake and never looked back.

FAKE. We've had real trees in the past, but less mess for fake ones.

And really...a lot of the house fires that happen around christmas are because of their real trees that dry up and stuff in my opinion. Fake = Much safer too unless you keep watering the tree.

We always get a real one... and we ALWAYS have to make the unfortunate trek into the Woods and cut it down to appease my Mother. At least now that I live in Vancouver it's not as bad. When I lived on the North Island... omfg... worst place to go Xmas Tree hunting ever.

yeah, ours is fake. the secret is to buy some pine scented oil, and burn it, so then you still get that festive smell.

I want a real one it just feels more festive. but if you saw my house you would realize that having a real one is just waaaay to much trouble to deal with in there. We have too much shit. At least with this one we can just kinda shove it in there and it won't shed on everything. We don't have any open space in my house. We would be finding needles in nicks and cranneys for months.
We got our tree for $1.00!!!! :D and it's nicer then a lot of the ones I've seen in the store. lol go auction dad.
