We have all fake (easier, no mess, and my allergies appreciate it). There's one full-sized, and then 2 mini-sized.

my family still treks out to cut down our own tree. i have to hand it to my father for putting up with it though, since he's pretty allerigic to pine. my brother and i are too, though not nearly as bad, so we just get a bit itchy and put up with it. we're actually going tomorrow to get our tree, so it's a neat coincidence this thread popped up. i'm definitely a little more than excited to hang some ornaments!

We have a fake full sized one. I prefer the fake trees because they look more symmetrical and have more branches to decorate.  It also means I don't have to kill a tree :)

My tree is small and fake. Just perfect for a small apartment.

We used to have real tree. I don't why my parents bought a fake one. Yes it's easier. No need to vacuum so often. And cats didn't like it that much :D And it saves money.  My grandparents have real ones, every year. I like the scent of the real ones.

But real or fake one, it really doesn't matter to me.

I´ve always chopped down my own, since my family owns some forest land. But the last couple of years it´s really given me a bad concience. I don´t like the idea of cutting down a living young tree, so from now on we´re going plastic fantastic.
Good for the carma, me thinks :-)

Right now we just have a smaller 3 foot fake tree. It is decorated with my husband's lego cars and trucks and semi's that he made this year. There's also a small army of mini figures worshipping it...

We have a real, full-size tree this year, which isn't the normal : o but we're also celebrating Christmas at home this year instead of going to a relative's house, which also isn't the normal, hehe.

I have to be careful not to touch the tree too much because I'm allergic to most kinds of trees. I got hives helping put up the ornaments... :drunk:

I really love Christmas trees, though. The ones with the lights on them especially, they look so pretty! :lovey:

We'll put up a real tree on Christmas Eve. When I was younger we used to have large ones, over 2m high, but now we just have them about 120-150 cm. I've always wanted to decorate house or trees in our garden with lights, but my family is very paranoid about those things and they're afraid that our house will catch fire if we do that (>__>)

I have a tiny fake tree somewhere, but I don't have the space in my room to put it up, sadly. I really wish I did. :(

I do have one of the Rainbow Dash winter gear plushies sitting under it to give it a little bit of pony.

I have two large fake Christmas trees in my home and a few smaller one. Also, my yard is lit up completely with lights, blow mold characters, and blow ups. I think you could land an airplane in my front yard.
And you post this with no photos? 

Live one, usually fresh cut by me, but with me being on light duty to due to work injuries we hit the local Costco and got one from them.  I think it is the smallest tree we have had in years, and it is an 8 footer.  LOL  I can not use all our ornaments.  I am so not used to a sheared tree anymore.  I look forward to going back to cutting our own next year.

I have a fake tree because I have dogs and the pine needles would be a PITA.  I usually put it up right after Thanksgiving, but it's up with my hubby's grandparents and with our weird opposite schedules, I haven't gotten it yet!  :sad:  We are going tomorrow to get the decorations so I can get the house nice and festive.  Christmas is my favorite!

As a child we always got a real tree, but when I was in college, there were no good tree farms nearby, so we bought an artificial tree that we used for about 5 years. Now that we've moved again, we're back to buying real trees! You just can't beat a real one!

Our house has been very busy this year, so our tree is set up, lighted, and garlanded - but still waiting on ornaments! We've also got extra lights strung up around the walls and ceiling - mood lighting, ya know ;)
