How to install a small Christmas tree. How to install a live Christmas tree without a stand. How to install a Christmas tree outside

“The holiday is coming to us,” and with it come New Year’s troubles.
Make sure to purchase your Christmas tree in advance.

1. Barrel. Having arrived at the market and pulled out from a pile of branches, cones and needles what you liked, you need to hit it with the butt ( bottom trunk, which once formed a single whole with the stump remaining in the forest) along the ground.
If, as a result of this action, needles fell on the ground, then you can safely put this “miracle” in its place.
If the test was successful, meticulously inspect the trunk for mold, mildew and other impurities.
As a rule, Christmas trees for sale are cut down in due time, upon reaching the age of eight, and in this case, with a tree height of one and a half meters, the normal weight is considered to be five kilograms, or better yet, all seven.
A very thin trunk is a sign of disease. A healthy tree should have a trunk with a girth of at least 6 centimeters; if it branches, it’s okay, it makes the tree look even fluffier.

2. Needles. Fresh spruce has a bright green color. Lightly rub the needles between your fingers: if the tree is fresh, you can feel the slight oiliness and fragrant smell of pine needles. If there is no smell, and the needles are dry to the touch, it means that something is wrong with the tree, most likely it has frostbite.

3. Branches. The tree should be fresh; if it is dry, it will begin to crumble in two or three days. A fresh tree's branches are elastic and cannot easily be broken off, while a dry tree's branches easily break off with a characteristic crack. The branches should stretch upward.

4. Transporting the Christmas tree. To avoid breaking branches on the way home, it is best to wrap the tree in burlap and tie it with rope. Carry the purchased Christmas tree home with the top back so that the ends of the lower branches do not fray. When you bring the tree into the house, its top, on the contrary, should be in front.

5. Installing the Christmas tree. If the tree is purchased in advance, then before the holiday itself it is better to keep it in the cold: hanging it outside the window or placing it on the balcony. However, even if the Christmas tree was purchased directly on December 31, then immediately add it to warm room, install and decorate under no circumstances: such a temperature difference can cause the tree to get sick and die. If the frost outside is below -10° C, do not bring the tree directly into the apartment. Let it stand in the entrance for about 20 minutes so that it thaws.

Before installing the tree, you need to clear the trunk 8–10 cm of bark and plan it sharp knife(to open fresh pores) under running water. You can also trim the top of the spruce tree at an angle, and anoint the fresh cut with Vishnevsky ointment.

You can install the Christmas tree in different ways:

Bucket with sand. The ideal option is a bucket of clean, damp sand. A liter of water is added to a bucket of sand, in which a small amount of glycerin or gelatin is pre-dissolved. Another option - as for garden flowers - is an aspirin tablet plus 2 tablespoons of sugar. Some people recommend adding a small amount of a suitable liquid fertilizer along with the water. It is better to install the Christmas tree in the sand in such a way that the lower part of the trunk is covered by at least 20 centimeters. The sand needs to be watered after 1–2 days.

Container with water. The water at the time of installation must be hot and contain acid - acetic or citric. The acidic environment can be replaced with effervescent aspirin tablets. Another recipe: add half a teaspoon to water citric acid, a spoonful of gelatin and a little crushed chalk.

Wrapping the trunk. The simplest option - but far from ideal: wrap the trunk at the cut site with a damp cloth, which must be moistened periodically. Then strengthen the tree in a cross, on a stand or in some other way.

Spruce branches can be sprayed from time to time with a spray bottle - thereby keeping the tree fresh longer.

Install christmas tree It is possible not only in the house, but also on the street. It’s especially good when a live spruce grows in front of the house, then you don’t need to buy anything or bother with installation. By the way, despite the fact that this moment It's still November, you need to think about installing the Christmas tree right now, the same can be said about pyrotechnics. It's best to visit a fireworks store soon because the price of everything will likely be lower than in the second half of December. And also, if you buy fireworks, do it in the Ba-Bah store, which can be found on the website ba-bah.ru. They have a huge collection of pyrotechnics. Moreover, everything presented has highest quality. As for the prices, they cannot be called high, at least they are not higher than average.

What you need to install a Christmas tree outside

To install a spruce tree outdoors you will need some kind of holder. The easiest way is to use a steel pipe for this; it can be driven into the ground and you’re good to go. You can also use a portable holder made of wood. Of course, the Christmas tree holder can be welded from rolled steel.

Three ways to install a tree

The easiest way is to use steel pipe suitable diameter. The inner diameter of the pipe should be slightly larger than the thickness of the spruce trunk. All you need to do is drive the pipe vertically into the ground, about thirty centimeters deep. To do this you will need a sledgehammer. This needs to be done now, because soon the ground will freeze, which will make installing the pipe almost impossible.

The next method is to use wooden holder. It can be knocked down from solid wood, namely from timber and bars, and boards can also be used. In the center of such structures, a square of suitable size is usually arranged. As for the legs, there are usually four of them. You need to place such a stand under the spruce where it is level.

The third way to install a spruce tree is to use another holder, but not made of wood, but of metal. To manufacture such a structure you will need rolled metal and welding machine. From metal, a piece of steel pipe, corners, square pipe, and indeed everything that can be used in this matter.

It is worth noting that to install a Christmas tree outside you will need not only a holder, but also a garland, as well as Christmas decorations. Moreover, it is desirable that the garland be large, like the toys.

So, let's reach the finish line and turn on the acceleration! There is a week left until the New Year and it’s time not only to think, but to start actively preparing the Christmas tree!

We’ll leave the debate about whether the tree should be a live one or an artificial one for later. Personally, I am of the opinion that _ But we’ll talk about this some other time. Now those who have an artificial Christmas tree - just click one of the “Like.buttons” and you can safely stop reading further, because the stand is included in the kit and you shouldn’t have any problems with installation. The rest - you’re welcome under the cut - I’ll tell you how, not for the first time, I easily and simply solve the issue of installing this New Year’s attribute
Christmas tree stands come in a variety of varieties. As a child, we had a metal bucket on a tripod with three clamping screws, with which the Christmas tree was clamped like a clamp. It was very convenient - there is little space, it holds tightly and you can pour water so that the tree can stand longer. But... the bucket broke long ago, and we never found a new one like it (though we didn’t really look for it).
For some time we used an ordinary bucket for a stand! Yes, yes - this is the easiest installation method.

1 Method:
What do you need:
1. Bucket (any kind, it can be plastic, we had a wide metal one. The larger the bucket, the larger the size of the Christmas tree you can place in it - after all, a very large Christmas tree is, therefore, heavy, which means you need a decent weight of cargo underneath).
2. Several plastic bottles filled with water (bottle sizes vary depending on the size of the bucket and tree).
3. A few ropes for guy ropes (sometimes it is necessary to additionally secure the tree either to the bucket itself in the form of a guy wire, or to a nearby cabinet-battery-shelf, etc.).

What we do:
- Remove excess branches from the bottom of the tree to the height of a bucket.
- The Christmas tree is installed in a bucket :) And it is bursting with plastic bottles on all sides (fixed). Some bottles are completely filled; the filling of others should be adjusted in order to insert them into the bucket to level and secure the tree. Bottles can be alternated - insert some up, others down with their necks. Those that are inserted with the lid up can easily be used to “select balance” during pre-installation: by unscrewing the lid, we drain under pressure excess water and the tree “finds” its place more easily.
- If necessary (if the tree is crooked and warped), it should be attached to something with small ropes (and even to the same bucket, if the bucket is of sufficient mass). The main thing you should pay attention to is that the tree must stand on its own! The ropes only _fix_ her in in the right position so that if you move carelessly during a round dance, you do not disturb your balance. A correctly installed Christmas tree does not need additional fixation! :)
- And now, fill the bucket with water - with this we create a heavy base for the Christmas tree, and secondly, we extend the time that it will stand. We had it for up to a month and a half, the main thing is not to forget to replenish the water on time - pine absorbs it very well :)

A large bucket under the tree does not always look beautiful... (and ours was a battered bucket, touched by rust...) so the bucket is wrapped in a layer of packing cotton - it turns out to be a beautiful snowball! And the Christmas tree looks like it was installed right in a snowdrift. If your company does not receive devices wrapped in tens of meters of packing wool (not to be confused with medical wool, which is much more expensive) :))) - we are looking for any fabric or cardboard - at your discretion. If only it was beautiful :) In the end, traditional figures of Father Frost and the Snow Maiden can also be placed.

Small Christmas tree for New Year 2007. Installed by method 1- a plastic bucket disguised as a snowdrift (for large Christmas trees a 15-liter wide metal bucket was used).

2 Method:
We used this method when the Christmas tree was of medium size (up to 2 meters), and we installed it for a short time.
What do you need:
1. An ordinary stand from an inexpensive fan. IN last years it's so hot here summer days... that you bought a “promotional” cheap fan, if not for home, then certainly for work. Unlike expensive models, its stand is collapsible. We take it from her bottom part, separating the fan itself.
2. A little adhesive tape (scotch tape) or rope.

What we do:
Actually, that's all! :))
- Attach the Christmas tree to the stand with rope/adhesive tape - and rejoice:) In a cool room, the Christmas tree will stand quietly for up to two weeks and will not fall apart. The stand is light, the tree can be easily moved from place to place.

3 Method:
This year I used it for the first time. Actually, this is a combination of methods 1 and 2. Initially, I was going to use method 2, but then... I felt sorry for the Christmas tree and decided to add some water to it.

What do you need:
1. An ordinary stand from an inexpensive fan (see method 2).
2. A little tape or rope.
3. Plastic bottle (minimum 2 liters. In general, the size depends on the thickness of the barrel. In our case, a 5-liter container was required).
4. I also needed one 30 mm self-tapping screw, but I could have done without it.

What we do:
1. First of all, as before, we free the trunk from the lower branches to the height of our container.

One of the questions that comes to us on New Year's Eve is how to keep a living Christmas tree at home longer, so that one of the main New Year and Christmas attributes will please the eyes of household members and, of course, guests for as long as possible. Below we will list some tricks aimed at ensuring that the Christmas tree does not fall off longer and remains as bright at least throughout the whole New Year's holidays.

• Buy fresh spruce. Of course, all the sellers will vying with each other to tell that the forest beauty was cut just an hour ago, but in fact, it happens that cut trees take several weeks to reach their buyers. If possible, buy a spruce directly from a nursery or from sellers you trust.
• Acclimatize. It is undesirable to immediately place the tree in a room at room temperature from frost; it is advisable to let it stand for about a day on the balcony, in the garage, etc.
• Give the tree a shower. If possible, rinse pine beauty under the shower: this procedure will not only remove dust and dirt from the tree, but will also saturate every twig and needle with life-giving moisture. After the procedure, let the water drain, and then put the tree in place.
• Temperature conditions. The cooler it is in the room with the spruce, the longer it will last. It is not advisable to place the tree near heating radiators and other heating devices, as this will lead to premature fading and shedding of the needles.
• Moistening the branches. If you spray the tree with a spray bottle every day or at least once every 2-3 days, this will help the branches retain much-needed moisture. IMPORTANT! Turn off during the procedure electric garlands to avoid electric shock and short circuit! Try to prevent moisture from getting on the garlands and do not overdo it with spraying.
• Barrel power. Be sure to place the spruce trunk in a container with an aqueous solution. Various are added to the water nutrients either all together or separately: sugar (about 50 g per 1 liter of water); salt (about 1 tbsp); aspirin (one crushed tablet); chalk (about 50g); lemon juice (1 tsp)

If you are installing a spruce tree on a stand, then it is advisable to place the container with the solution under the stand, lowering the cut into this container. It is advisable to increase the feeding area by cutting the trunk into a wedge, making an oblique cut, or removing the bark from the bottom of the trunk. As it evaporates and “drinks,” it is advisable to update the solution in the container.

How to put up a Christmas tree without a stand

If you do not have a stand, or the design of the stand does not suit you, or you cannot install a container with a nutrient solution under the stand, then simplest option- put the Christmas tree in a bucket of sand and moisten the sand with the same solution. Installed in this way, the tree will be stable and preserved long time due to largest area nutrition.

Well, if you buy a Christmas tree in a pot, which we wrote about here, then this beauty will delight you throughout your entire life, and not just during winter holidays. And if desired, later, it can be planted in open ground, decorating personal plot or by making your contribution to greening our beloved planet.

Happy New Year and Christmas!

An artificial tree lasts for a long time, but a live one lasts only a few holidays. But this time she will delight you with unique pine aroma, giving a real New Year's mood.

If you don't have great experience handling natural wood, then you simply cannot do without our advice. Before you go to the Christmas tree market, carefully read how to select and install live Christmas tree for the New Year at home on your own.

How to choose a live Christmas tree

If you decide to choose a live Christmas tree, then do not waste time. If two or three weeks before the New Year there are thick and beautiful spruce trees in the markets, then before the holiday itself there may be bald trees left that no one bought.

In addition to the external beauty of the tree, an important parameter for choosing it is the size, that is, the height. The tree should not touch the ceiling. Alternatively, of course, you can file the trunk a little, but tall trees usually more expensive. Tree width - less important parameter, but still, dressed up, she should not take up the entire room and interfere with the passage of your household.

If you put the spruce in a corner, you can buy a cheaper one-sided tree. Otherwise, you will have to cut off the branches from too lush crown, which should stand in the center of the room and delight others with its beauty from all sides.

Now you need to choose a high-quality live Christmas tree that will last in your home for a long time. This must be done for several reasons at once.

1. Take the tree you like and hit the bottom of the trunk on the ground like a staff. If the needles fall off, then it is better not to take such a tree.

2. Now you need to examine the trunk, if it is very thin, this may be a sign of disease. If the tree is healthy, then the girth of the trunk should be at least 10 cm. But branching is not a sign of mutation; on the contrary, such a spruce is usually fluffy and beautiful. Also inspect the trunk for mold and mildew.

3. The needles of a fresh Christmas tree are rich green. To the touch, if you rub them a little with your fingers, the needles are a little oily and very fragrant. If all this is not so, then the tree is frozen.

4. Branches should stretch upward, be elastic and difficult to break. If they break off with a bang, this indicates that the spruce has dried out and will not last long.

You also need to deliver the selected Christmas tree home according to certain rules, having previously packed it in a bag and tied it with a rope. In order not to spoil the lower branches, carry it with the top back, and turn it around with the top before entering the entrance.

Usually under New Year It can be cold, and the Christmas trees are stored outside. Therefore at home forest beauty Completely different conditions await, to which it must get used before installation and decoration. Keep it in the entrance for about an hour so that it thaws if the frost outside is below 10 degrees. And then leave it for 1-2 days in the hallway (or where it won’t disturb you) to warm up, wrapping the trunk below with a wet cloth and covering the tree on top with a dry one. There is no need to untie the tied branches and wash the Christmas tree.

If you bought it in advance, you need to store the tree in a cold room, for example, on a balcony, garage or basement, so that its needles do not fall off.

How to install a live Christmas tree at home

Once the live tree has become accustomed to the warmth of your home, carefully untie and remove all strings, being careful not to damage or break the branches. Measure the height of the Christmas tree and your ceiling, making sure it will fit in the room in an upright position.

The trunk from below needs to be cleared of 8–10 cm of bark and slightly sawed or planed with a sharp knife under running water, since the resin plugs the pores and prevents the tree from absorbing moisture. If at the Christmas tree market the tree was cut down diagonally, then saw off this entire part so that the base is even. Also calculate the distance from the stand to the lower branches; some of them may also have to be cut.

Now place the tree vertically and inspect it from all sides. It will be better if someone helps you do this. The most beautiful side of the tree should attract the eyes of those entering the room so that it is immediately visible. Moreover, if the tree stands in a corner, all the beautiful and fluffy branches should be in plain sight, and not against the wall.

A live Christmas tree is installed in a special stand designed specifically for this purpose. It has legs, a sand pot and barrel holding bolts designed to be customized. After installation, check whether the tree is level and not leaning to the side. You can replace such a pot with a bucket of sand, but there is no guarantee that a tree decorated with toys will not fall when you least expect it. The lower part of the trunk must be covered with sand by at least 20 cm.

A living Christmas tree needs special care. First of all, it needs to be watered. It is better to do this the first time when your spruce is not only installed, but already decorated. Fill the container with hot, but not boiling, water to clear the pores of resin. The following waterings should be done every day with water at room temperature, settled or from a filter.

Since ancient times, the Christmas tree has been considered an integral attribute of the New Year. By bringing it into the house, we bring into it a piece of a fabulous mystery that will unfold before our eyes for two whole weeks. Therefore, the labor-intensive processes of installing and decorating the forest beauty are not burdensome, but are pleasant pre-New Year chores.

Of course, each of us wants our New Year's guest to delight us with her presence for as long as possible. You can achieve this by using some little tricks.

The correct choice of Christmas tree plays an important role. Give preference to a tree with elastic and well-bending branches. Don't be afraid to waste precious time; bend a few spruce branches. If they break, then, most likely, this beauty was “taken from the woods” a long time ago, and this, in turn, can significantly spoil the holiday atmosphere in your home. The cracking of a branch when bent should also alert you. This spruce will not suit you either.

Having chosen and bought a Christmas tree, carry it home with the top of its head backwards. In this position, it will not fray its lower branches and will not lose a large amount of needles. But you need to bring the tree into the house with the top first, so as not to accidentally damage or break it.

Under no circumstances should a sudden temperature change be allowed. Your guest needs to adapt to her new place of residence. Keep it for some time in a cool room, for example, on a balcony. And only after that invite you into the room.

Now is the time to take care of the tree support. You can use a bucket filled with wet sand or water. Or you can refuse such fillers and wrap the tree trunk with a piece of cloth, which will have to be periodically moistened. But it is best to use a special Christmas tree stand with a water tank. This simple device will securely fix the tree and allow optimal moisture flow to the trunk.

The choice of location for the Christmas tree is also very important. Make sure there is no heat source nearby. Neighborhood with a fireplace, heater or radiator will adversely affect the needles, which will ruin the New Year's atmosphere in the house.

Before installing the tree, remove branches from the base of the trunk. Don't forget to update the tree frame. This will allow moisture to quickly penetrate the trunk of the New Year's beauty.

Now is the time to secure your green guest to the stand and fill the tank with water. Make sure that the tree frame is constantly in water. After all, a felled tree loves to “drink.” And the evaporation process will do its job.

To extend the life of the New Year's beauty, you can also use traditional tips that have stood the test of time. So, the water that you add to the tank must be settled so that the chlorine evaporates from it. When renewing a tree cut, it would be a good idea to remove the bark from the lower part of its trunk at a distance of 10 centimeters, and the cut itself should be made at an angle of 45 degrees. The exposed part of the trunk should be completely submerged in water.

These simple rules will extend your proximity to the forest beauty until the old New Year.

Tested: the longer you wait for a holiday, the less prepared you are for it: We actively purchase gifts, trying not to forget anyone, we manage to stock up on groceries so that we don’t leave the house for the next couple of weeks, and the most important thing - the symbol of the New Year, the Christmas tree - is purchased at best a couple of days before the main holiday. At worst - in a couple of hours. How then can you have time to set the table and set up the Christmas tree? Calmly! There is an exit. Even three or even more! So, the Christmas tree...

....Christmas tree in a chair on wheels

Well, this is the easiest option - just find somewhere the lower part of office chair- breaking a new one or finding an already broken chair is your choice....
And then simply install the Christmas tree in this stable and mobile cross!
Great base for a Christmas tree!

...WEIGHTLESS
WHAT YOU NEED: a stick (a pipe, a mop or a regular “lazy one”), the length of which depends on the height at which you are going to hang the tree; strong rope, self-adhesive hook, which after the holiday, if desired, can be easily removed from the wall.
PROCESS. Place the stick against the baseboard and fix it at an angle of 40 degrees using a rope and a hook on the wall (photo 1).
It remains to attach (tie) the Christmas tree to the free end of the stick (photo 2). The connection point should be slightly above the center of gravity of the tree: this is necessary in order to green beauty hung freely.
The New Year's tree will be able to “float in the air”, practically without relying on anything, thanks to the laws of physics: the tension force of the rope and the force of universal gravity will become equal.
This installation of the Christmas tree takes only a few minutes. The rope can be disguised with tinsel or rain. This will give the installation a futuristic look. You don’t have to reveal the secret of “weightlessness” to guests and relatives: just say that you are a wizard (which doesn’t happen on New Year’s Eve!). The main thing is that you don’t forget about the secret yourself, so that on the morning of January 1, when you discover the effect of weightlessness in the apartment, do not try to “go into outer space.”

...MOBILE
WHAT YOU NEED: old office chair on wheels, or rather, its lower part.
PROCESS. Carefully disassemble the chair, leaving the support on the casters. The freed bushing will serve as a nest for the Christmas tree trunk. By the way, if old unnecessary chair no, you can take the new one apart and put it back together after the New Year.
We adjust the diameter of the barrel to the hole using an ax or knife, and assemble the structure.
The “mobile tree” is easy to move and therefore will not disturb anyone during the holiday. People who have already experienced this “know-how” claim that after a couple of hours of feasting, many try to invite the Christmas tree to dance.

...SELF SUFFICIENT
WHAT YOU NEED: knife, hacksaw, drill, drill and steel pin 10 - 15 cm long along the diameter of the drill. Well, and, of course, the tree itself.
PROCESS. We saw off the lower part of the tree with a tier of branches (the so-called butt), and turn it over. Doesn't it look like a cross? Let's use it. We remove the bark, drill a hole in the butt trunk for a metal rod (Fig. 1) and the same in the main trunk of the tree.
We connect the structure using a rod (Fig. 2). For greater stability, the “cross” branches need to be attached to the floor. On March 8, 2007, when you are supposed to throw away the Christmas tree, don’t forget to leave the bottom part: it will come in handy in a few months!

We are all looking forward to the New Year holidays, a special atmosphere, sparkling shop windows, warm winter evenings with the aroma of tangerine and, of course, real miracles that both adults and children believe in. Everything around is transformed and dressed up in anticipation of the holiday.

But the most important decoration is the huge New Year tree installed in the main square of the city, near shopping and entertainment centers and in parks. An establishment with a green beauty at the entrance attracts more visitors and creates a positive image. After all, children’s laughter is always heard near the Christmas tree; it fascinates with its beauty and inspires.

In a word, find that little thing that, in your opinion, the person with whom you want to be friends should have.

However, the most effective method- put the tree in the middle. Thus, you can strengthen almost every aspect of your life by hanging several enhancing symbols there. At the same time, you need to hang symbols no longer looking from the door, but on those branches that look at the angles you need. A round dance around such a tree will be most effective.
