When is the Best Time to Put Up Your Artificial Christmas Tree?
Artificial Christmas trees are a great choice for anyone who wants to have a beautiful, holiday-ready tree but doesn’t have the time or space to care for a real one. Most artificial tree manufacturers recommend you wait until after Thanksgiving to put up your tree, but that’s not always realistic. If you’re planning to put up an artificial Christmas tree early this year, follow these tips:
1. Make sure it’s dry and clean. Artificial trees are made of plastic, which means they can hold moisture for a long time if they aren’t properly dried out before storage.
2. Wrap it in paper or plastic and store it in a cool, dry place until you’re ready to set it up.
3. Do not leave the lights on when you store your tree; this will damage the bulbs and shorten their lifespan considerably.
For most people, Christmas trees are an important part of the holiday season. They’re a way to express your creativity, they’re a fun way to decorate your home and they’re a great conversation starter with family and friends.
But when is the best time to put up your tree?
Here’s what you need to know:
Early November: If you have kids, early November might be the best time to get into the holiday spirit. This way, you’ll have plenty of time to let them explore their new tree before it gets packed away for another year. You can also start shopping for new ornaments and decorations at this time of year as well — which can be fun for both kids and adults alike!
Late November: If you want some extra time before Thanksgiving hits, late November might be perfect for you. This will give you more than enough time to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner without having to worry about decorations or other holiday items yet. And if you don’t have any kids (or just don’t want them touching anything), late November might be even better because there’s less traffic in stores this time of year compared with earlier months when everyone is gearing up for Christmas!
Overall, the best time to put up your Christmas tree is when you get it. That way, you can be sure you’re starting with a fresh tree and you won’t have to worry about the leaves dropping or needles falling off.
However, if you are like most people, you’ll be buying your tree after Thanksgiving. This means that by the time you get home from work, unbox it and set it up, it’s already getting dark outside. If this is the case for you, try to get your tree into its stand as soon as possible so that it can begin absorbing water and drying out before evening comes around.
If you have to wait until morning to set up your tree, make sure that its water reservoir isn’t empty when you do so — otherwise it won’t be able to absorb water from its roots as quickly as it should in order to stay fresh longer during storage.
