Ugly Christmas trees!!!!

We have a really old fake tree that we were thinking needed to be replaced...I thought it would be nice to get a tree with lights already on it.

WELL...I have yet to find a really nice fake tree...they are all skinny and so sparse you could read a news paper through them!!! I can't believe in this day and age they can't make a more real looking tree!!!!

We bought our tree at K-mart several years ago and it's really pretty.

We got ours at target in the after christmas sale. We really like it. my favorite part is you can move and bend the branches to facilitate your ornaments.

Brooke, I'm with you. I want the ease of a fake tree, yet have been having trouble finding one that's even remotely close to a real one in looks.

I can't justify spending $300 on one, and the cheapies just look cheap to me!

As soon as I get mine up, I'll take a pic and post it. I only paid $59.99 for mine and it is really nice! You just have to really look and then wait for the after Christmas sale.

I'm not gonna lie. Our Christmas tree is hidious!!!!!! But it was free....my grandmother gave it to us because she had 2. It is definately a Christmas tree from like the 1970's that has fiberoptic lights on the end of each pine needle and a disco ball type deal in the bottom of the stand and the disco ball spins around and makes the tree needles change colors. It is pretty hilarious. But we love it simply because of how hilarious it is!!!!!!!!!

Very nice tree, Amber!!!! Would like to have one like this, only a bit taller, if we ever decide to not have a real tree. We should be buying ours in a day or two. Not too close to Christmas or it will get too dry.

That tree is beautiful..but so is the price. I guess I'm just too tight with my money...LOL I'd rather just keep my little ole tree for a few more years. THEN when I hit the lottery...ha ha ha ...then I'll buy that one!!!

Do you have Hobby Lobby up there? They usually have GORGEOUS Christmas trees. A little pricy (depending on what you want) but gorgeous, none-the-less.

We have always had fake Christmas Trees. This year we decided to buy a real one. I will never buy a fake Christmas tree again! Granted it doesn't smell as good as it once did but man it is just gorgeous. It is so full and green and a perfect shape! It doesn't even shed a lot. Still looks freshly cut!
