How to Store Your Prelit Christmas Tree like a Pro!
A prelit Christmas tree is one of the major purchases that many people get during the holiday season. They opt for these trees since they are easy to use year after year. The lights are already on the tree, ready to go, and all that the person needs to do is to set this up every year and choose their decorating theme. However, in order to ensure that this prelit Christmas tree is great from year to year, it is all about storing this. We have a few tips that are going to help you with storing this year after year so that you can always count on your prelit Christmas tree being beautiful years down the road.
Invest in a Storage Bag
1. Make sure that you are taking off all the décor from the tree when you are storing this. There are tons of people out there who try to store this with all the décor on it. While it may work for a few years, chances are it will result in broken décor and trees that look a little worn out.
2. Be sure that you use a tree storage back, the original box, or some other type of Christmas tree storage option. The idea is to be sure that you have this stored from the elements.
3. Store this in a location that is not going to be hot. Too many times, a prelit Christmas tree placed into a hot attic can result in the tree almost melting or even becoming discolored.
4. Do not smash the tree into the container that it is being stored in. Gently fold the branches up so that you are not bending these in the wrong places.
5. Avoid water! This is an important storage tip for those who are putting this back into the cardboard box as water can damage the box and result in discoloration on the tree.
