are those fake?!?!?!?
yes. yes, they are.
i never, in all my years of living (it's a lot), thought i would be numbered among those with fake christmas trees. and now we have TWO!!! (a small one in cy's room. he loves it.) i love real trees. love. i mean, C'MON, is this what a christmas tree is supposed to look like:
i submit - it is NOT. ugh. well, it was free, and a real one would've cost, and free wins for us at the moment. ok, ok, it's not ALL that bad. for instance, will didn't have to deal with almost-frostbitten hands from cutting the bottom off, i haven't had to vaccuum pine needles, i didn't have to string lights (yay), and i did not get poked at all putting on ornaments. it IS pretty. it just looks weird seeing a skinny pole in between the branches and at the bottom. oh well, i'll live, and i'm almost certain presents will fit under it like any other tree. so, wal-mart here i come for a smelly "real tree" candle............{sigh}

aw hang in there Anika! fake trees arent all that bad. Like you said no pine needles to get everywhere, Or poke you. AND no sap! and there is nothing like the fake artificial pine smell from a warming candle. Happy Holidays!
my grandma gave us a fake tree this year, swore i never would do that but like you said free always wins out. it's not so bad i guess and i have a pine scented air freshener hanging in the tree so it kind-of smells real.
Amran expresses his condolences! Love the air freshener idea, I'll have to try that.
