genoandkiddo Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Mine is 6.5. I love it, my house was designed for christmas. I just don't know what I am going to do with my candles that I bought last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outnumbered Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I'm not sure. I think it's a 7.5 food prelit tree...before that we had a Walmart clearance special $15 tree that was 6' and the most pathetic excuse for a tree ever. If you so much as sneezed near it, it'd topple. We did a real tree one year but I was still finding pine needles on the floor in May, and with a baby crawling around on the floor, that wasn't so good. So last year I shelled out a whopping $50 and got a decent tree on sale. I look forward to being able to sneeze this year. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 7.5 ft tall pre-lit christmas tree. So convenient and there is no more swearing because one string of lights was out and it wasn't blinking. LOL. I hated checking each bulb to see which one was bad. Took forever.

orangedaisy Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I don't know yet...we buy a real one every year. We'll probably get a taller one than usual this year since we moved and now have much higher ceilings. I know my husband will argue getting a bigger one but I'll win - he loves me too much to say no.

Steakgoddess Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 We are going to have two this year! I am so pumped about it. Last year I got a tree on clearance at Target for like $5. Plus we have the tree we have een using for a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I've had a real tree. Im not good at keeping things alive (plants/bushes etc) so I'll stick with my new pre-lit fake tree. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year I had to move a big shelving unit to totally block the main entrance to the living room, then move the couch, to be able to put the tree up in a good spot. This year the couch may wind up sticking out in the middle of the living room since our tree is even bigger now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kandy Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Mine is 6.5 feet. I would prefer a real tree but with my DD algeries its best not too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazzMama Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Our main tree is 7' pre-lit w/ fiber optics; Cailyn's (daughter) has a 3.5' prelit in her bedroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuntJamelle Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 We have three 7 ft trees - one big fat one, one medium size around and one skinny one. We also have a 4 ft tabletop tree. I've always wanted to have a house with a two story foyer so I could have a really, really tall tree in it! Not really energy efficient, but it would be really pretty! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this new house, we have already discussed and realize that we will have to put our love seat down the basement for the holiday season, since there is just no other way a tree is going to fit in our living room. Oh well, I guess I should be grateful that we have the room in the basement for the love seat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a Frank Lloyd Wright home, so its big if you know what those homes are like....We had at minimum 7 trees. Yes 7!One in the Master bdr ,this room is at least 600sq ft it self. (7ft tree)One in the master bath on the middle of the 2 sinks. (about a 3 fter)One in my room (6.5er)One in my bathroom, again between the sinks, about 3fterOne in the formal family room (8 fter)One on the kitchen island (3 fter)And one in the downstairs area about 6.5 on the dance floor area.(theres a full bar, dance floor, bathroom, pool table, and tv area with fireplace...AWESOME for entertaining.)USUALLY my grandma put 2 small 1fters on the bar. And sometimes in the den area. We really went all out for the holidays.Each tree had a theme..it was fun...Grandmas tree was all peach, mine was blue (both matched the bedroom motif)The downstairs was all white and the others were random. Now as an adult,I collect the hallmark ornaments, so I guess thats my motif! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerosmithgirl Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Speaking of trees, a friend of mine was at Wal-Mart the other day and saw a sign on some 6' pre-lit trees that said do not put on floor until November 25th, so I am assuming a blitz item!! There's a preview! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayhaysay Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 7.5 ft. and really full. I got it on clearance a few years ago and I really love the way it looks, but it is not prelit and it is a job to take down and get it to fit back into the box.
