I find it doesn't give me enough of a " warm fuzzy " Christmas feel. Seems too cold to represent the holidays for me, sorry.

Oh and by the way.....

where the heck did you find that??

I like big fluffy trees myself. I'm more traditional in that sense.

It reminds me of earring holders. It's pretty cool tho.

In the right setting....I think it's beautiful!!

[Miss_April]

That's different!

It would look great in a modern styled home.

[Mrsb07]

Yeah its not for everyone but I like it. And it would be much easier to pluck my cat out of! Ever try to get an unwilling cat out of the center of a big bushy tree? And have the tree still standing and no broken ornaments after you do get him out?

I adore Mid-Century Modern. I'd try this tree outside, and train roses and vines around it, then place lights and hardy outdoor decorations on it. It also looks like a great slide for squirrels!

I like to save our real trees & have artificial ones.But as MrsBo7 said this is a great tree to keep the cat offOur cat use to love the real ones before I became smart enough to get the artificial one ( we need to save our trees as they are being chopped down needlessly) & it was a heck of a job to get her out.My daughter would love this tree she bought us a similar one once & I put it up every year.Also if you have cats or babies dont put tinsel on the trees,it attracts them & they can choke on it as they chew on it.

The tree I've been using for the past 5 years is one of those old silver ones from the 1950's. I got it for $2 at a yard sale. It looks so nice when it's lit up, the lights reflect so much from all the silver aluminum. I've gotten about 6 of those old aluminum trees from yard sales, different sizes, mostly silver but 1 blue one too. One year I set them all up all over the house.

I miss all the traditions from my country, most of all the parol.

Handmade parol


Electric parol
