It’s not long until you’ll be getting the Christmas tree out of storage or buying a new one as you decorate for the holidays. It’s one of the most enjoyable activities that gets you into the seasonal spirit, but it can also be a major pain in the butt. Trees are huge and totally round and that’s a whole lot of lights and ornaments to put on. The answer? Half Christmas trees* that fit flat against the wall and take half the work. I’m so into it!
- Half the work! Half the decorations! Spending 50% less time decorating the Christmas tree means you get 50% more time to eat Christmas snacks and watch movies like Elf. I don’t know about you, but this seems like an all-around winner to me.
- It’s great for smaller spaces too. In addition to the benefits for the lazy among us (I include myself in that, just FYI), there’s also the fact that if you live in a smaller house or apartment, fitting a full round Christmas tree somewhere can be a struggle because it does take up a lot of room. With a half Christmas tree, you can literally push it up against a wall rather than having it pushed out in the middle of the floor.
- It comes pre-lit as well. You don’t even have to think about getting lights for this bad boy because Hammacher Schlemmer who makes and sells the tree offers it in two versions, one with white LED lights and one with multi-colored lights depending on your decor. There are 350 lights on each, all of which will offer 25,000 hours of holiday cheer.
- It’s not cheap but it is worth it. If a half Christmas tree sounds like your cup of tea, you can order yours here for $249.95. While that’s not exactly cheap, for many of us, it’s definitely practical and a good investment for years to come.
