Christmas Tree is a must have item in a house when celebrating Christmas. Regardless whether it is a real or an artificial one.
Do you know how great a real Christmas tree can smell? There is some freshness out from them and with a bit of sweet scent. And It would be better to add some ice instead of water to keep them longer, and lasting. When it withers, just like any ordinary plants, their needle-like leaves begin to turn brown and slowly dropping on the ground. Have you ever wondered how does it look like to decorate a Christmas Tree without any leaves?
