I like artificial Christmas wreaths. There I said
it. Funny, the first time I tried to voice that opinion, my mother was aghast.
Where we live, during the Chirstmas season, you can buy live Christmas trees and wreaths almost
anywhere. The Boy Scouts have tree sales in parking lots and private retailers open their farms for
selling live greens. The smells of fresh greens are everywhere and are a cheery part of the
Christmas season.
However, in my household, convenience wins out over the fresh smells. I learned many years ago
that having live Christmas trees and wreaths make a huge mess and aren't as wonderful as everyone
seems to think they are.
I decided quite a while ago, that when the time was right, I would buy one of
those artificial Xmas door wreaths. And since I made that decision, I have purchased an
artificial Christmas tree and an artificial Chirstmas wreath. In all honesty, I am very happy with
having both of them.
