It’s the most wonderful time of the year! That’s right, it’s time to find your perfect tree for your space this holiday season! Today there are so many options out there. The team at Alair Homes has created a list of ideas to help you find the best option for you and your home.

Traditional Fresh Tree

If you are a sucker for all things traditional during the holidays then a live, fresh tree is probably just what you’re searching for. You can get the whole experience and go to a Christmas tree farm, hand pick your tree and cut it yourself, or visit a local tree vendor and pick from the yard. A live tree really does seem to add a whole other level of warmth and coziness to your home. Whether you decide to decorate it with traditional or modern decor to match your space, it is a lovely addition to your home that can help spark special holiday memories. The amazing smell that comes along with this choice also adds to the festive spirit and is a primary reason why many people prefer fresh trees over artificial.

Artificial Tree

Of course, the opposite to a fresh tree is to go for the artificial Christmas tree. There is a wide range of prices, height, width and even pre-lit options out there. The biggest advantage to an artificial tree is that you don’t have to worry about watering it, needles dropping as it dries out or disposing or recycling it at the end of the year. You can simply store it away and reuse your tree each year when Christmas comes around.

Alternative Tree

If you are wanting something different and unique, there is no end to the trees you can choose from. Trees come in white, silver, gold, tinsel, wooden, or even glass! These alternative trees really allow you to show your personality and to find the absolute perfect match that goes with your decor and the theme in your home. With unique boutiques, stores and the world of the Internet at your fingertips, there’s nothing stopping you from finding the tree you only thought you could dream up.

Space Saver Tree

Bringing a traditional tree into your home can often result in you having to rearrange your whole space. If you have a smaller home and you are wanting to save space then a traditional tree may not be what you are looking for. You can find small half-trees or “pencil trees” that take up little floor space or can even find a home on a tabletop. You can also create a “wall-tree” by stringing Christmas lights in the shape of a tree on your wall resulting in literally no floor space being lost. These space-saving tree ideas can also be a fun option for other rooms in your home that you wish to give some Christmas spirit, like the guest room or your children’s room.
