each year we put up our tree and attempt to hide or decorate our very useful but really unattractive christmas tree stand... the trick is you still have to water it and if it's not easy you won't.
the kids decorate the tree with their many creative crafts from christmas past and present. This year it was thinking of popping it onto a major box but it did tend to take over.... the kids suggestion of a sack works beautifully and it's so easy to water too
