Pre-lit or unlit, and what that means for your lights

The main difference between Christmas trees is how you want to light and decorate them. 

  • Pre-lit Christmas trees have lights already positioned through the branches, reducing the amount of setup needed each year.

  • Unlit trees give you more control over the lighting. You can add your own Christmas lights, choose the colour and number of lights, and change them in future years without replacing the tree.

  • Fibre optic Christmas trees use illuminated fibres throughout the tree to create their lighting effect. Lighting colours, modes and other features vary between individual trees, so compare the specifications when choosing between options.

Finding the right Christmas tree size this Black Friday

Measure the height and width of the space where you plan to put your Christmas tree. For height, leave enough room for the tree stand and any topper you plan to add. For example, a 2.1 tree leaves around 30cm of clearance under a standard 2.4m ceiling. Width is also important, especially if the tree will sit in a corner between furniture. Check the listed base diameter as well as the height, as fuller trees will take up more floor space. If space is limited, a slimmer tree can give you more height without taking up too much room. 

Understanding tip count, LED and fibre optic

Tip count is the number of individual branch tips on an artificial Christmas tree. Generally, a higher tip count creates a fuller appearance with fewer visible gaps between the branches. Tip counts will vary depending on the height, width and style of the tree, so compare trees of a similar size rather than looking at the number on its own. You may also need to shape and spread the branches after assembly to get the intended appearance. 

Setting up Christmas inflatables outside 

Our Christmas inflatables come in a range of sizes and designs for outdoor Christmas displays. Before choosing one, consider how much space you have, where it will be positioned and access to a suitable power source.

Inflatables should be secured using the pegs, ropes or other anchoring equipment supplied with the product. Follow the individual setup instructions and make sure electrical components and extension leads are suitable for outdoor use. If strong winds or unsuitable weather are forecast, deflate and store the inflatable until conditions improve.

Storing your Christmas decorations 

Artificial Christmas trees can usually be separated into sections after use, making them easier to pack away between seasons. Keep the original box if it remains in good condition, or use a suitable tree bag or container that protects the branches while in storage.

Keep ornaments protected from knocks and store Christmas lights carefully to reduce tangles. Explore our storage range this Black Friday, including tubs and containers that can help keep decorations together and protected until you need them again.

Christmas Decorations FAQ

What height of Christmas tree suits a standard ceiling?

For a standard 2.4m ceiling, a 2.1m Christmas tree leaves around 30cm of clearance for the stand and a tree topper. Measure your ceiling and check the full tree height before ordering, particularly if you're planning to add a larger topper.

Is a pre-lit tree worth it?

A pre-lit tree can reduce setup time because the lights are already positioned throughout the branches. An unlit tree gives you more flexibility to use your own lights and change the colour or style from year to year. The better option depends on how you prefer to decorate.

What is the difference between fibre optic and LED trees?

LED Christmas trees use individual LED lights positioned throughout the tree, while fibre optic trees use illuminated fibres to create their lighting effect. Colours, lighting modes and other features can vary between individual trees, so compare the product specifications before choosing.

How do I stop a Christmas inflatable blowing over?

Use the pegs, ropes and other anchoring equipment supplied with the inflatable and follow the setup instructions for the individual product. Position it on a suitable surface where it can be secured properly. If strong winds are forecast, deflate the inflatable and store it until conditions improve.

Can I use an artificial Christmas tree outside?

Only if it's rated for outdoor use. Most indoor trees aren’t suitable for outdoor use as rain gets into the light wiring on a pre-lit tree and UV fades the needles quickly. For a verandah or front yard display, inflatables and outdoor-rated lighting can be a better choice.
