Xmas is a big deal for me. I get real or fake trees depending on the theme. I prefer the real trees for the nice smell but have installed an all black fake tree this year.

If you go the real tree route, you need to jump on it this weekend or the good ones will be gone by the following. The scouts sell them and you can preorder. Also keep in mind they need watering almost every day. ( an automated watering system can be DIY if you’re so inclined)

If you aren’t that into it just get a fake one.

For ornaments, I source them from NSW. Christmas World or Amazing Christmas. You can buy in bulk.

Hit me up if any more questions

That black tree sounds awesome - got a photo?!

Not yet, I’ve only just finished mounting the motor for the tree topper to the ceiling. I will finish the tree this weekend and post photos.

I've thought about a themed one. Black forest or the ones with the fake snow. Dunno if I'm brave enough though.

The problem is you have to use it for several years to get your money’s worth so probably just pick out a fake tree you can live with for a while, if you go that route
