      Artificial.
      We have cats and don't want them swallowing pine needles etc.

   Buy a real small one in a pot, and you can re-use it every year.

   Living in Florida, getting a real tree would be a pain (and a nightmare to take care of), but I've had them living up north. Best thing in the world! They smell so wonderful!
   
   The past year I decided to try something new and painted a Christmas tree mural (medium sized) on my wall in replacement of an actual tree. After xmas, I just put my photo collage back over it, so you can't see it. It's really cool

   Neither for me. But my mom somehow found a palm tree Christmas tree. I think we used it once.

   That's a tough one. I live in Oregon, so getting a real tree at a decent price is no problem. And I love the real ones! I decorate with lots of unusual ornaments. But I've developed an allergy over the past several years. So I may be converting to Fakeism soon.
