A fresh holiday tree is pure wonder—but a dry one can turn dangerous in seconds. Let’s keep the sparkle safe with these simple habits:
✅ Water every day. A hydrated tree is a happy tree!
✅ Keep it cool. Place your tree away from heat sources so it doesn’t dry out.
✅ No candles—ever. Flames and branches don’t mix.
✅ Use a sturdy stand. Make sure it holds plenty of water for daily hydration.
✅ Certified lights only. Look for CSA, ULC, or ETL marks for peace of mind.
🎁 Don’t give fire a chance.
