🤶 Can’t Miss Decor Tip!

If you are an artificial tree family and need a new Christmas Tree, July is a great time to invest! High end companies often have Christmas in July Sales. Balsam Hill has a great sale on their ultra realistic trees. Think Hallmark Christmas perfection! Early in our marriage we purchased a cheap Target tree that worked for the time, but it wasn’t pre lit and you could see through the tree. A few years ago we took advantage of this sale at Balsam Hill and have never looked back! The tree comes with a very nice storage bag, gloves for fluffing the tree and a repair kit, very fancy. Take a look at some of the deals offered!
