Decorated Christmas Trees in Christmas Trees by Style

What are the advantages of buying a pre-lit tree?

Pre-lit trees are easier and quicker to set up. There's no need to mess with tangles of Christmas lights each year. You just put your tree up, plug it in, and you can decorate it right away. Some people prefer unlit trees so they can choose the number and type of lights they want, but if that's not a problem, a pre-lit tree is probably your best bet. Plus, you can always add lights to it if you want to.

What size Christmas tree do I need for my room?

As long as you can fit the tree inside your room, there's no rule on what size tree to put inside your home. That said, most people try to leave between 6 and 18 inches in between the top of the tree and the ceiling. Just be sure to account for space for your topper and your tree stand, which might add a few inches. As for width, if you have a smaller room, consider getting a pencil-style or slim Christmas tree.

What is a tabletop Christmas tree?

A tabletop Christmas tree is a small Christmas tree, usually less than three feet tall. They earned their name because you can place them on top of a table, desk, or countertop. Tabletop trees are great for people who live in smaller homes or apartments and don't have the space for a full-size tree. They're also great for people who want to decorate multiple trees but don't have the budget or space for many large trees.
