We have some spare sheets we can use.
Yeah. What is up with that watering the tree thing? The instructions say you can use a pitcher. Fail. I had to sit under the tree with the pitcher and a little cup and pour each cup and attempt to get it into the base. There isn’t much room to pour.
But that tree smelled wonderful.
A tree MUST be watered!
Also, put a penny and a couple of spoon fulls of sugar into the water !
When a fir tree is cut off, the needles dry out very quickly...Without adding water frequently the needles will be all over the floor...Not only are they a bear to get out of the carpet, but they can turn brown before Christmas arrives and more susceptible if a flame gets too close...And even if you don't see many needles hitting the floor while it's standing there, when you go to remove the tree from your house after Christmas, you will leave a good portion of the tree on your floor all the way to the door...
We have a plastic plant watering can with a very long skinny spout. Works great for adding water in tight places without making a mess.
A pine tree adds a wonderful aroma to the house, unlike any other. Might want to take a small pan of water, add some cinnamon sticks and cloves and let simmer on the back burner of the stove or in the microwave. Smells like you have been baking all day! The wonderful aromas of Christmas.
