Putting up Christmas tree in November? Why not!

There is an unwritten rule in Belgium that says: the Christmas tree should not appear until after St Nicholas has left the country. But you know what? At TRIXXO, we say: away with that rule! Because why wait? Here are 5 simple reasons why it is indeed a good idea to put up your Christmas tree now.

1. It literally makes you happier (really!)

No, this is not a joke. In fact, it has been scientifically proven! Research shows that people feel happier and more relaxed as soon as those glittering Christmas lights come on. It's the nostalgia, the atmosphere, the warmth... A Christmas tree is really just a boost for your mental health. Give yourself that gift already!

2. Cure your autumn dip

Those dark, cold days can feel heavy. Leaving in the morning in the dark, coming back home in the dark... But a Christmas tree is a wonderful anti-herald-dip remedy. Instead of arriving in a dark house, you are welcomed by hundreds of warm, fairy lights. That's much cozier, isn't it?

3. Enjoying Christmas longer

Everyone looks forward to Christmas itself, but the weeks before - the planning, the atmosphere, the cosiness - are at least as much fun! Watching your favourite Christmas movies, playing carols and planning Christmas dinner: it all starts as soon as that tree is there. Why let that fun last only a few weeks when you can also just have it right now?

4. Less stress before the holidays

Every year we resolve to decorate the Christmas tree really nicely. But just before the holidays it is often such a chaos that you don't have the time to decorate your Christmas tree properly. By putting it now, you can take it easy. You have more time to think about what Christmas decorations are still missing: a DIY garland, a fantastic ornament, or the perfect peak? No stress this time, just enjoy decorating one step at a time!

5. The perfect background for your Christmas cards

Want to send a personalised Christmas card? Think of that cute photo of the kids or your faithful four-legged friend in front of that gorgeous tree. The sooner that photo is taken, the sooner your friends and family will receive the card and, above all, the longer it can show off on their cupboards.
