It’s fascinating how realistic they look now how long does it take to make one tree

How many fingers ☝🏼 are lost during this fascinating process?

I remember in the 70s when my parents got their first artificial tree and my dad was laughing so hard, as he handed me the instructions on how to put the tree together. And in bold letters it said do not water.

I have always had a real tree, sadly, last Christmas I became allergic to my tree. I don’t know if they are sprayed with chemicals to stop needle drop, ( because they are cut in early August in Canada, and trucked into the US in November. ) The trees may also be sprayed with insecticide / pesticides. Whatever it is on the real trees, it gave me hives and a contact dermatitis when I was taking down the tree after Christmas, and removing the trunk from the tree stand. This Christmas, for the first time ever, I had a “ Looks like a real tree, but it isn’t “ delivered from Balsam Hill. I am very pleased by how easy it is to set up, and how realistic it is. This tree will last me forever.

Several years ago I was shopping at a a Goodwill outlet/bin location. The number of artificial trees wreaths and garlands laying in the bins arm cross a sizable warehouse space was beyond noticeable. The o make it worse. Within a certain time period after being on the floor for shoppers, the bins were wheeled back to the next area and you could here the large compacting and crushing machines as the bulk of the items headed to the landfills. Though I repurpose and attempt to pass on to fill someone else’s need, that combined with third world living experiences, continues to reshape my consumption and use of non-consumables of all sorts

For the environment is better to have a real tree. A small branch of pine tree or cedar tree is very beautiful. I prefer the natural tree. Merry Christmas!!

Artificial tree cause they look so realistic without the shredding mess of spuce needles… Christmas is my favourite time of year, so I have my tree unpacked, fluffed and decorated the weekend before December 1, and keep it up until January 7, no real tree would last inside for that amount of time.

I was not aware it took that much CO2 to create a single tree though…

That thing shown at 2:15 is not a German feather tree, but rather a tree made of feathers...big difference.

[kamily]

I'm allergic to artificial trees. My arm breaks out in a rash every time I attempt to string lights.

[katieryan]

I use a artificial tree, I had my last one for 20 years.

[pauls]

We should thank china to make it available to whole world in very reasonable rates

interesting. i keep mine somewhat longer, because i do not like pre-decorated or pre-lit trees.

if those statistics says traditional bulbs, lasting 3 to 4 years (needing hunting and replacing the bulbs); people then tend to dispose faster.. than 5 to 10 years.

I also favor "plain" trees than decorated or painted tree. The reason, next year I want change creatively an different design, easier to alter plain tree than already decorated tree. In my area it is becoming difficult to find plain tree as well.

that means life expectancy and disposal of pre-strung or pre-decorated trees is shorter and is not helpful (against) environment. and with my preferences, i end up reusing tree more frequently.

I also separate branches and recycle them at scrap metal yard. the "stem" and trunk stand... becomes useful as drying stand (mason jars) or spray paint stand... (i have 2 as recycled, and 1 plain that i retained far longer)
