It is 21 days until Christmas. The first advent already passed, some Christmas fanatics have already finished Christmas shopping, some have just started, and some lay it off until last minute.
No matter what type of person, everyone agrees they love a good Christmas tree – decorating it is so much fun!
But every time Christmas comes along, some families aren’t sure what kind of tree to get.
Everyone knows of the “normal” Christmas tree you can buy at Superstore or Walmart. They smell like Christmas and are neat, until closer to Christmas when they start losing all their needles. Then it’s a hot mess, especially with kids and pets and presents in between. This can ruin the excitement and joy that has come from cutting the family tree personally, another option for a family that really wants a real Christmas tree.
A lot of families have come to the conclusion that the entire hassle that comes with a Christmas tree can be eliminated by a one-time-purchase of a plastic Christmas tree. There is no cleaning up to do, no discarding once Christmas is over, and no driving every year to a store to buy a new tree. Sounds perfect, it’s easy, but now the authenticity that comes with the smell is gone. And Christmas tree smell candles don’t get it back!
Now, in the Unites States, an entrepreneur came up with a concept that he put into action is his own company “The Living Christmas Co.”. Their concept is that they grow Christmas trees from just seeds to actual Christmas trees, and do so with many different types of trees. They then put them online, and families can rent the live trees, which are then delivered to the families by elves, Santa’s reindeers and other Christmas characters. The tree is alive, smells like a Christmas tree, doesn’t lose needles like dead trees, and the cool thing is that year after year, the same family gets the same tree back, truly making it a part of their family’s Christmas!
Maybe YOU will be the bright mind that brings it to Canada!
Merry pre-Christmas season, and happy shopping!
