German couple scripts world record by installing 444 Christmas trees & 10,000 ornaments

With the Christmas holiday nearing, a family from Germany has scripted a new world record after installing nearly 444 trees and further adorning them with more than 10,000 ornaments in their apartment. The Jeromin family from Lower Saxony, Germany has set the record for holding the most ornamented Christmas trees in one space, The Mirror reported. As per social media posts, the family has received the World record certificate in front of their decorated trees adorned with shimmery and glittery ornaments.

Tree collectors Thomas and Susanne Jeromin started working on the enormous holiday project months ago. "Family Jeromin is really the world leader here," stated a spokesperson for Germany's Rekord Institute, which catalogues outstanding worldwide accomplishments like the Guinness World Records, as per The Mirror.

Jeromins utilised around 10,000 decorations and 300 strings of fairy lights in the trees

Furthermore, the judge of the world record organisation, Olaf Kuchenbecker, who evaluated the extraordinary record, said, "There are 444 trees standing this season, or today, here in this house in Rinteln. And I have counted all of them, that is indeed correct."  The Judge went on to say that to hold the record, the trees have to be adequately decked and that is an important factor considered while judging.

As per CNN, each of the Christmas trees was meticulously and individually adorned by hand. In the images, it can be seen that trees that were decorated have been surrounding furniture such as a work desk and a bed on all sides. On this project, the Jeromins utilised around 10,000 decorations and 300 strings of fairy lights. However, it is unclear how much the family has spent on the decorations at this time. 

Earlier, in the year 2019, a Swansea grandmother claimed that she had invested £15,000 on her 2,700-piece Christmas bauble collection, about a fourth of the Thomas Jeromin's. After dangling the tiny orbs from her ceiling, Sylvia Pope, 77, from Swansea, had hoped to set a world record. Each bauble was hand-pinned to the living room ceiling over the course of 12 weeks.
