What color for the Christmas tree this year?

What you need:

• Christmas tree, e.g. B. Nordmann fir, spruce or noble fir
• Christmas tree balls
• tinsel
• Garlands
• Christmas tree decorations made of straw

Choosing the right Christmas tree for this year

If you don't want to use an artificial Christmas tree this year, do your research before buying a fresh fir tree, think about which type of tree you want to buy and what your fir tree will look like should.

• Since most Christmas tree stalls sell 2-3 tree species on average, the most popular tree species are primarily offered. These tree varieties include the Nordmann fir, the blue spruce and the noble fir. The Nordmann fir is often bought because of the low needle loss, the blue spruce because it is particularly cheap and the noble fir because of its strong scent.
• Once you have decided on a type of tree, you should measure how much space you have available for the tree before buying it. So measure how high and how wide the tree can be. Bear in mind that the branches of the tree are usually still lying.

• If you have now decided on a type of tree and also made the dimensions, you can go and buy the right Christmas tree. You can also take advantage of the advice of the seller.

Select the appropriate color of the tree decorations

Once you have set up your chosen Christmas tree and let it stand for a day so that the branches can lay down, you can think about the color of the tree decorations. The color may of course vary from year to year.

• A brightly decorated Christmas tree naturally attracts a lot of attention among children. So if you still have young children, you can use brightly colored balls with brightly colored motifs. You can also hang colored tinsel or colored garlands on the tree.
• A two-tone decorated Christmas tree also has its charms. If possible, you should only choose two different packages of Christmas tree balls, otherwise the color differences can be too great.
• If you prefer a neutral Christmas tree, you can use Christmas decorations made of straw, for example. You can often buy the straw jewelry in the shape of a star.
