We work hard all year long, sweating away in the kitchen, Instapotting delicious dishes for the family, and keeping the house in order. By the time the holidays hit, many of us are wiped out. But that doesn't mean we should skip things like decorating entirely; it just means that we deserve some help . . . some way to make getting things ready for, say, Christmas just a little bit easier. Amazon is listening.
While the retailer will be shipping out real trees [1] this year — yes, really! — fake trees sometimes suit our needs best. (Did you know real trees can have up to 25,000 bugs in them [2]?!). Here are our favourite fake trees, all available on Amazon.
