Fake or real?

Tuesday, November 18, 2008

We have always had a fake tree. Well as a kid of course we had real, since we lived in a real place. But here in Florida where all things are fake, we also have the fake tree. However all the lights were kind of crapping out and we got rid of it last year because we wanted to try a real tree. Well now that the time has come, I am torn. Here is my pro and con list.
Pros of Real Trees
-the smell
-the realness

Cons of Real Trees
-needles and sap
-the fact that I cant put it up as soon
-that they are less cost-effective than fake
-I have to actually put the lights on it

So I dont know. Reading this list I guess I am leaning towards fake. Help me decide, people.

One of the best 'pros' of a real tree is not having to find a spot to store it. I'm all about a real trees, even if you're still finding needles come July.

I do fake, more cost efficient. And it's what I grew up with.
