Christmas trees: which one to choose?

As the end of the year holidays approach, many are following the tradition by installing a 

in their living room. Whether natural or artificial, the tree will be decorated with light garlands, balls and several objects. In each home, it is an opportunity to have a good time and soak up the magic of Christmas. Children are delighted to participate in the decoration of their tree while waiting for the passage of the famous man in red. If the natural tree has many advantages, it can also prove to be restrictive. He loses his needles quickly, especially when children touch them. But in addition, it cannot be reused the following year.

Conversely, the artificial tree does not have these drawbacks! After some thought, then are you planning to invest in a reusable Christmas tree? Only, you do not know on what criteria to base your choice? Depending on your preferences, you will find different types of trees. From a practical point of view, you will have to choose a tree whose dimensions adapt to your interior. Then you will take care of the aesthetic aspect. If you want a natural look, you will certainly prefer realistic models. If you bet on a sober decoration, you will then opt for a simple model, in order to put the garlands and objects to your taste, while waiting to place Christmas gifts for the whole family at your feet. Finally, you will also find modern Christmas trees, equipped with aintegrated illumination.

How to choose the right Christmas tree?

This year, for various reasons, you are considering buying an artificial tree to celebrate Christmas.

Maybe you have toddlers who start to walk and fear they might bite… Or you've adopted a little puppy and wouldn't want your Christmas tree to lose all of its needles until D-Day. Only, among the different models of trees on offer, you don't know which one to choose.

We explain to you what criteria to take into account.

Which size to choose?

Before making your choice, you must take the time to measure the space you have available to install a tree. There are indeed models of different sizes.

Are your children clamoring for a giant Christmas tree to receive their favorite gifts? Reassure them by explaining to them that Santa Claus will be just as generous, whatever the size of your tree! Do you live in a spacious house? You will then be less limited in your choice. Depending on your budget,you can treat yourself to a tree of 180 to 250 cm.
