FacebookTweetPinPrintLinkedIn

A Christmas tree is an object that is in every family household all over the world during the Yuletide season where kids and kids at heart alike place their holiday presents, and Christmas won’t be the same without it. As that popular song goes, Christmas is truly the most beautiful time of the year. It is the time when people can enjoy feasting on scrumptious food, gift-giving, and family bonding. The festive and nostalgic feeling that the Christmas season brings is indescribable; it is because this season takes everyone back to the time of childhood bliss, no matter what age.

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree 

What’s so special about a Christmas tree anyway? For one, most people use the fir tree, which is a type of an evergreen conifer tree that keeps its leaves all-year-round, unlike other deciduous trees that shed leaves all the time. Secondly, Christians believe that an evergreen tree symbolizes the everlasting life with God.

No one truly knows for sure as to when and where the first Christmas tree was used to celebrate Christmas, but it is said that it began during the 16th Century. During this time, a story was told that Martin Luther, a German preacher, was mesmerized by the magnificence of the stars that shone through the trees as he was walking within the forest one Christmas night. He shared this experience with his children and told them that it made him remember Jesus and how it felt as if He left heaven to visit Earth for Christmas. What a magical story.

 

Which is a Better Christmas Tree: Artificial or Real?

For the longest time, it has been every Christian family’s tradition to put up and decorate a Christmas tree during Yule. It is one of the best kinds of bonding between families or relatives. So how can you create the best Christmas tree this year? First off the list is to choose the type of tree that’s easily available. Several types of trees that are popularly used as Christmas trees are fir, spruce, cedar, cypress and pine. But what if a real tree is not available to you? There’s no need to fret, since there is another option, and that is by using an artificial one.

There are real advantages to choosing artificial trees over the real ones. One, it eliminates the hassles of travelling to the forest, cutting your tree, and carrying that massive thing over to your vehicle. Another advantage is that an artificial tree can be easily kept once Christmas time is over; it can simply be disassembled into several pieces and stored into a box. What a relief!

 

Where to Purchase a Christmas Tree and What are Some of the Options?

Hundreds of online websites are available that offer not only artificial Christmas trees with various types to choose from, but also Christmas ornaments and accessories such as bows, wreaths, and even a tree skirt. One can choose from the traditional and unconventional trees that can best suit your style and taste. For those who don’t like putting Christmas lights on your tree but still like the idea of lights on it, you can choose the ones with Fiber optics. Just plug it in and voila! It suddenly blinks to life! For people who don’t have enough space to put a giant Christmas tree, you can choose the potted ones instead. And finally, for families who love snow, you can purchase a snowy Christmas tree. Cool eh?

Christmas will always be magical no matter what, but it doesn’t hurt to spend extra time and effort when creating your Christmas tree. It’s something that can show a person’s personality and make the season more endearing to the whole family.
