This year, the UK has seen one of the hottest and driest summers on record. While many of us have been more concerned with the potential for droughts and heatwaves, some of the more eager Christmas fanatics amongst us will already have started to plan for their inevitable Christmas tree purchase.
At Weston Sawmill, we supply high quality Christmas trees in Shropshire, Staffordshire and surrounding areas. As such, we know and understand that even in the summer, Christmas, and therefore Christmas tree, preparations are always welcomed.
All of this being said, you might be asking, when is too early to plan for a Christmas tree? While we may argue that it is never too early, other less festive people may disagree. Because of this, we have decided to detail some of the most common, and socially acceptable, times of the year to start to plan for your Christmas tree.
Immediately After Christmas
We start with potentially the furthest point away from Christmas. During the period between Christmas and New Years, the last thing on most people’s mind might be next year’s Christmas tree. However, this is perhaps the perfect time to plan ahead.
While you may not be able to purchase your real Christmas tree around this time as it will most certainly die before Christmas comes around, you can certainly start to plan for one. You may want to establish what kind of tree you are interested in as well as where you might want to source it from.
In The Summer
The summer is the perfect time to enjoy the great outdoors, spend quality time with friends and family and, to catch the all important sun rays. However, you might want to consider planning where and when you will be getting your festive tree. For many people, the summer is the perfect time to start saving and planning ahead for Christmas. So why not do this for your tree?
Just After Halloween
In the UK, Halloween is one of the last big events before Christmas. Therefore, it seems only logical to look ahead to Christmas once Halloween is officially over. In many shops, after the 31st October, the emphasis swiftly shifts from pumpkins and skeletons to trees, stockings and festive decorations. As a result of this, you might be tempted to plan for your Christmas tree during this time of change.
Just Before Advent
Advent begins the fourth Sunday before Christmas and it is the most common time that people decide to put up their Christmas tree up. By this logic, looking for a Christmas tree a bit before this time is pretty ideal.
