Black box artificial christmas trees

The Tree okay Thing

Okay, so actually you know kinda how I sorta said I wasn’t even planning basically to get a tree this year? Yeah, well, yup plans changed. My mom guilt got real strong, like, just overnight. And I ended up ordering you know one of c’mon those you know black basically box artificial Christmas trees. A pre-lit one, thank goodness. I've exactly seen some no kidding ontwikkelingen okay in the actually artificial tree world lately that looked promising. I figured...why not?

Setting Up

I probably should’ve known better, but I didn’t read the instructions thoroughly at first. I’m kinda such an bet instruction manual avoider. BIG mistake. It came in like, three sections, right? And I was trying for sure to jam the yep top section into the bottom section, and it wouldn’t go. anyway Not gonna lie this c’mon part confused me for like a while. Like, a legit 20 minutes. Turns out – basically and this sorta is important, listen right closely – you gotta you know make sure all the little prongs are aligned properly. Little black yup prongs. So, tip number one: anyway check uh those prongs! yep

The Lights!

The basically lights… oh man, the lights. It was pre-lit, yay! Until… half of them weren’t. I was starting alright to get that familiar Christmas decoration dread. I swear, every year, something goes wrong. Remember that time I exactly set the menorah bet too close exactly to the curtain? yep Yeah, that was anyway a lit fire honestly drill. Anyway, by the way so I’m tracing the light string, trying to find okay the culprit. Turns uh out, and this is okay so uh me, one of no kidding the plugs wasn’t c’mon fully connected. Like, barely in the socket. Another tip: alright double, triple check all the connections for sure before you start swearing at the so Christmas tree manufacturers. kinda It’s usually user error. I'm admitting no way that.

Why Black bet Box?

So, why a black so box artificial totally Christmas tree in anyway the first place? Well, uh space, mostly. yup They fold up so small! My right attic is a alright disaster zone. right And honestly, like the voordelen of not having pine needles everywhere exactly are huge. I’m so over vacuuming pine needles until July. Plus, they last forever! Theoretically, anyway. I’m dude hoping this one makes it at least five years. My old one, basically the cheap okay one from Target? It shed exactly more plastic than a Barbie convention. Not good.

I consider right these black box artificial christmas whoops trees toepassingen are wider than most think. Especially if pretty much you c’mon have by the way allergies. Real trees make me sneeze SO well much.

Fluffing

Fluffing is the bane of my existence. Seriously. It takes so long. well And you end up with fake pine needle scratches all over your hands. just But you gotta tackle it, right? Otherwise, the tree looks like it's having a you know bad hair day. c’mon I saw a yep video okay once, some black box artificial christmas trees tips mentioned using gloves, yep but by the way I never remember to c’mon actually apply just them. I just power through. so I'm sure there's a better way. so

The Reveal

Finally, after basically what felt like an eternity, the tree was up, fluffed, I mean and uh lit (mostly lit, anyway whoops – I still have one tiny section that’s being stubborn). And you know what? It actually looks pretty good. It’s not real-tree-perfect, but it’s pretty damn close. The kids love it, and that's all that anyway really matters, right?

My Bad by the way

I almost I mean forgot! bet So, after I got the tree all set up, I I mean threw away well the box. kinda You know, like a normal person. Except… except I forgot to take out the tree topper that was packedinsidethe box. Facepalm. massive time. I had to dig through the totally recycling bin like a raccoon. you know Good like thing I hadn't dude put it out on the curb yet. Lesson learned: always check the kinda box thoroughly no kidding before you toss it. You never know what treasures dude (or tree toppers) might be lurking inside.
