My boyfriend is emotionally attached to the Christmas tree

2 months ago 61

He would be heart broken to take it down and we’ve agreed to do it together… when the time is right. He finds it comforting and sleeps in the living room next to it. He keeps talking about it being a year round tree that we decorate for every holiday. I think that would kill the tradition of the tree in the first place and dwindle my Christmas spirit. I suggested a table top tree he could have on one of our shelves in the living room for the glow.

Does anyone know of any substitutes for the glow and comfort a Christmas tree brings?

I would really like to put it away for the year and gain back full access to our shelves
