A beautiful, well-decorated tree is always very pleasant to look at.
But, this pleasure for the eyes only lasts for a while.
With my 2 little tips, you will be able to admire your Christmas tree for longer!
To be lucky enough to have a magnificent Christmas tree in your living room, you must first choose it correctly.
When you decide to buy a tree, do not rush to the first comer.
Take the time to look at it more closely, because some trees that have been cut too early will not stand up throughout the holiday season.
To check the freshness of the tree, the trick is to pinch a branch of the tree so that you can pull it sharply towards you. So, verdict?
If the tree is freshly cut, a maximum of 5 or 6 needles should come off. If not, this is not the Christmas tree for you!
The worst enemy of our beautiful tree is heat! Thus, avoid installing your tree too early in the house so that it can withstand the shock.
If you're a foresighted person and you've already bought it for a while, all is not lost!
Try to keep it in a cool place:a cellar, a garage or outside if possible.
When the time comes to install your tree, remember not to place it too close to a heat source so that it does not lose all its needles in no time.
One day after its installation, you can start decorating it and for this step, just let your creativity do the talking.
I place wet pebbles at his feet or spray water every two or three days on its trunk.
