🎄 Be Nice, Check It Twice: Christmas Tree Safety 🎄

A beautiful tree makes the holidays magical—but a fire can ruin everything. Before you plug in those lights, be nice, check it twice with these safety tips:

✅ Water Your Tree Daily: A dry tree is a major fire hazard. Keep it fresh and hydrated.

✅ Inspect Lights Before Hanging: Look for frayed wires, broken bulbs, or loose connections. Replace damaged sets.

✅ Keep Heat Away: Place your tree at least 3 feet from fireplaces, heaters, and candles.

✅ Turn Off Before Bed: Always unplug lights when you leave home or go to sleep.

🔥 A little extra care keeps your holidays merry and bright!
