Fancy wall Christmas tree ideas.

\n\n\n

I have a feeling these may trend in 2021 due to supply chain issues rendering 3D trees in short supply.

\n\n\n

There in short supply? Store near me has a lot of em

\n\n\n

It\u2019s still October. Real trees and artificial trees are predicted to be affected by supply chain problems. Buy them as soon as you see them if you want them.

\n\n\n

\ud83e\udd37\u200d\u2642\ufe0f I guess that makes sense, though every year they run out before December, so idk if you can call that Bidens fault/ a supply chain issue. Stores get about what they think they\u2019ll sell way before hand to try to not have a back supply after Christmas.

I personally prefer having a living outdoor tree. Doesn\u2019t matter if it isn\u2019t a fir, it\u2019s alive and lit.

\n\n\n

I said nothing about the president, let alone blamed him FFS.

Artificial trees are manufactured in china and transported via cargo ship to the US, then further distributed via semi trucks. Every part of that process has been affected by the pandemic, and has seen labor shortages and delays. Due to long transit times, the fact that eg. artificial Christmas trees have not been manufactured in China at usual rates by October means the usual numbers aren\u2019t being loaded on slow moving cargo ships, so they won\u2019t be delivered to eg. Walmart distribution centers and hence to our local stores in usual numbers, which will presumably result in a shortage of artificial Christmas trees in our areas in a couple months.

The situation with real trees is a bit more local and doesn\u2019t really start until the beginning of December, so it\u2019s still in the air, but still involves CDL drivers, trucks, rural labor, and the Canadian border, since many forestry products, including Christmas trees, are exported from Canada.

\n\n\n

I more mean the supply chain thing( a lot of people are blaming biden on it). I apologize for it coming off as thinking you said it.

I also didn\u2019t know live trees still went via cdl, most people just get them from the local farm here.

\n\n\n

Np.

Every state has Christmas tree farms, (I suspect that tax law or something makes it cheaper to just smack some Christmas trees on the land you want to hang on to for a while and tell the tax man it\u2019s totes agricultural land now vs doing nothing) but while rural or semi rural folks may mostly buy locally grown real Christmas trees, more urban areas have to have trees shipped in, usually on large trailers from a limited range of areas.

Those trucks have to be driven by commercially licensed drivers, and there\u2019s only so many drivers or trucks, and a lot of them are already worn out or driving around some other stuff. Also people in those tree exporting rural areas have to harvest and load the trees, which could also be a pinch point.

\n\n\n

Yeah, the agricultural land tax dodge thing is how it came about that Taylor Swift, daughter of a financial advisor, “grew up on a Christmas tree farm”
