Artificial Christmas trees have become very popular. This is primarily due to financial savings and environmental protection. However, in order for the tree to last for a long period, it is necessary to avoid common mistakes during storage.
Using plastic bags
One of the mistakes that artificial tree owners make is using storage bags. The tree is placed in a bag and tied with a rope. This method often leads to the needles becoming wrinkled and losing their appearance. To avoid this problem, it is recommended to use a box for storage. In a box, the artificial spruce does not lose its appearance and will last for many years, delighting others with its bright color.
Placing spruce on the balcony
In apartment conditions, artificial spruce trees are placed on balconies. It is permissible to keep such products in such places, but the balcony must be closed and protected from moisture. On an open balcony, an artificial tree will lose its appearance. The needles will become wrinkled and brittle. The sun's rays will contribute to the loss of color and structure of the material.
Not folding branches
Modern models provide a function such as folding for convenient placement. Using this method, you can maintain the appearance and extend the service life of the Christmas tree.After the branches are folded, they must be secured with small strands and only then placed in the box. Users make mistakes and use physical force when folding branches. Such actions harm the New Year tree and reduce its service life.
Washing products after the holidays
After the New Year holidays, many, when dismantling an artificial Christmas tree, wash the branches in the shower, but such actions are not recommended. Residual moisture often does not dry out properly and can lead to mold growth within a year. This type of damage to the needles may result in the product being unsuitable for further use.
After all jewelry has been removed, carefully shake off the dust and place it in a place for further storage.
The New Year tree is the main attribute of the holiday. However, spruce trees are most often used, which have a long service life and justify their cost. After the holidays are over, you need to know how to properly store the product in order to extend its service life.
