Care Of Christmas Trees

After you bought your Christmas tree and brought it home, the first thing to do is to give it a fresh cut and to put it into a stand with water. A Christmas tree never should be mounted dry and the water should be refilled regularly. The best way to do a fresh cut is by cutting about an inch off the bottom in a slight diagonal shape; this helps the absorption of water. If you can't do a fresh cut straight away after coming home, the Chritsmas tree should be placed in a container with fresh water and put in a shaded area, away from the wind.

First and foremost your Christmas tree should be safe in its stand and it should be placed away from open flames or any other sources of heat, like fireplaces, furnaces, air vents or anything else which may dry your tree out. You should not start with decorating your Christmas tree before it has been mounted properly into its stand and numerous decoration forethoughts should be taken to minimize or keep off your Christmas tree being a fire hazard.

Mounting your Christmas tree has never been easier than with this Krinner Genie Tree Stand. The patented Foot Pedal Ratchet Systems helps you to straigthen and secure your Christmas tree literally in seconds without asking for any helping hand. Just put your Christmas tree in the stand and step on the foot pedal until five clamps get hold of the trunk and tighten it. The base, with automatic water level indicator, holds 2 gallons of water; enough supply for an average Christmas tree for two days.

Never use Christmas ornaments that have an open flame or candles for decoration. Also Christmas tree lights should be checked to ensure that bulbs are working properly, that the connections are intact and that no part of the electric cord is damaged. If you detect any uncovered wiring or bulbs that are not working or working intermittently, don't use this string of Christmas tree lights anymore. You are better advised to go shoppping for new Christmas tree decorations.
