Picking Your Tree & Placing Your Tree

• If you have a fake tree or a real tree it is important to pay attention to where it is set up
• When picking a tree choose a fresh and green tree, one that when touched the needles do not fall off
• Keep away from heat sources
• Don't allow your tree to block an exit
• Keep your tree watered, a dry tree is an Ugly tree and a potential fire hazard.

Decorations

• Pay attention to whether they are indoor lights or outdoor lights.
• Make sure to replace any worn or broken cords
• Do Not Use Candles to decorate your tree
• Even though the tree looks beautiful in the window for all the neighbors to see, it is important to remember to turn it off when leaving your home or when you are going to bed.

After Christmas

• There are places that will pick up your tree and dispose of it such as, boy scouts, the Aberdeen City Council, and many more.
• We would not recommend leaving your tree in your garage or out side near our house, it is extremely dangerous because one little spark to that dry tree could make your wonderful and beautiful Christmas turn into a ugly one.
