Christmas is coming. Yes, I know we are just a short eight weeks away but time flies by so quickly these days that before you know it - it will be Christmas.
The reasons I say this is because it takes time to ship Trees and some suppliers may be out of stock in a few weeks so it’s a great time to start planning the Tree and your theme for this year. “The Tree” is the most important feature of your Christmas Holidays.
After all where else would Santa be putting all those presents on December 24th after he climbs down the chimney.
First look at the size of your main room and consider the width of your space.
Why buy a Pre-Lit Artificial Christmas Tree? Well if you are buying the tree at one store, and have searched a few large stores what about the lights? Will they fit on your tree, will you have enough lights, will they fit, do you know how to string the tree, and will you bother with all those decisions. At the price of gas, these days and traveling to stores it makes good sense to buy on line and avoid the unnecessary trips back and forth to and from the stores.
If you want to avoid all of that running around an easier way is to purchase a good size tree online that will already come professionally lit and just right for the size of tree you order.
A Pre-Lit tree is about the same price as one without lights so you are saving money and time. If it takes a day to string a tree properly just think at the time you will save and be able to spend it enjoying the tree with your family and friends.
Lights that you buy separately come wrapped into a slotted piece of cardboard and have you ever tried to store them after you take the tree down? It is maddening to unravel them every year from a ball of twisted tangled wires and figure out where the right end is can drive you crazy in no time.
A Pre-Lit Christmas tree has a strategic way to put it together and within a short while, it will be up and ready for further decorating.
There are also the Pre-decorated and Pre Lit Christmas trees that come all in one package, which saves you even more time and your sanity. These trees are not like those of ten years ago that do not look real today is artificial Christmas trees look very realistic and in some cases people do think they are real trees. However, you are saving your self from the foibles of a real Tree and that is the: needles, the drying out, the mold, pollen and other allergens that cause allergic reactions in some people.
Besides the ecological reasoning of keeping all trees in the ground and the rate of deforestation, a good tree provides oxygen to the planet and so we like to think they serve a better purpose in the ground and alive. The disposal of real Christmas Trees even if the city where you live can recycle just adds more waste to the planet.
I like to find trees in a forest as that is where they should be and cutting them down seems like such a waste after all it takes over 10 years to grown one to a good height to be used as a Tree.
Pre-Lit Christmas Trees are considered too easy by die-hard lights on the tree veterans of years ago. Today convenience and time mean more than traditions in this fast-paced world. We cannot be bothered with that ball of lights that are all tangled up from last year in a plastic bag.
The Pre-Lit Christmas trees come in artificial form but they are manufactured to be identical to the their wild cousins namely species such as a Blue Spruce, or a Douglas Fir, or a Hunter Fir Tree.
The best feature of all by far is the fact that if one bulb gets burn out on one branch it does not affect the whole tree. In strings of lights we all know what happens there, your whole tree is dark and with no light. Trying to find that defective bulb is impossible so you are left to go and buy another string of lights over and over again.
In short why else would you chose to buy any other type of tree than a Pre-Lit Artificial Christmas Tree, with all of its advantages there really isn't a good one.

I'd totally go for one of those prelit christmas trees , as a father I don't really have the time for setting up the lights on my christmas tree, and when I do it tends to look rather awful, it's stuff like this that actually helps along the way.
