We always buy a real tree, so this was my first time buying an artificial one.  I was very hesitant, but since we weren’t going to be in town for Christmas, and I still wanted “holiday cheer” in my house, we decided to go for it.  I can’t believe how full and beautiful it is!  I am extremely impressed.  It took some time “fluffing” it up, but it’s worth it! 

Pros: Beautiful!
Cons: The fake “needles” cut my fingers and hands, so maybe next time I’ll wear gloves! :)
