We need a new Christmas tree. My last one the dog pissed on (and tbh i brought it when I was broke so it was a bit... meh anyway). Mrs wants an real tree, which I would normally have no issues with but we're not here for Christmas day. Feel like a real tree is a bit wasted.
DT what would you guys pick? Also who makes good ornaments? Dog pissed on most of those too. And the Kmart ones looked great new but quickly fell apart.
we have one of those reject shop ones with built in fibre optic lights. No tinsel, no fishing it out of catbums for the next six months.
One year we got one of these and stuck baubels on it for an outdoor bbq christmas, looked pretty snazz. Looking up the link I found they do christmas themed ones too!
the integrated light idea is appealing. my only concern is if they break the tree is basically rooted.
nah, just the lights. You can get a battery pack of LEDs from the reject shop for $2 and loop those around instead. Did that one year while waiting on a new bulb
