FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHERE TO BUY CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHTS?
No Christmas tree would be complete without a set of twinkling lights but, luckily, there’s plenty of places you can snap some up. Just a few top online retailers you can check out for a range of Christmas tree light options include:
WHERE TO BUY CHRISTMAS TREE DECORATIONS?
Whether you prefer a more traditional look, or favour quirky ornaments, there are plenty of decorations on the market. For classic decorations, look to stores like Marks & Spencer and Myer. For quirky, tongue-in-cheek baubles and ornaments, you can’t go past Amazon or Typo.
We’ve also rounded up some great traditional and unconventional decorations here.
HOW CAN I CLEAN A FAUX CHRISTMAS TREE?
Artificial Christmas trees spend 11 months of the year stowed away so it’s natural they should accumulate some dust. To clean, simply run a cloth over the branches to remove any build-up. If something more is needed, add the upholstery bristle brush attachment to your vacuum cleaner and suction the dust off.
WHY ARE FIR TREES ASSOCIATED WITH CHRISTMAS?
People have been decorating trees in their homes during the winter solstice for thousands of years but fir trees became a Christmas tradition in the eighth century. It’s said a German missionary spotted the rebirth of a fir tree out of a felled oak tree and connected this to the rebirth of Jesus Christ. Voila, the Christmas tree became a thing.
