Changed my tree.

Changed my tree.

I guess that I just can't get used to an artificial tree. My tree is just too perfectly shaped and I haven't been happy with the look so this morning I took it apart and played around with it and came up with this new shape. What I did is left out the middle section. I'm much happier as I think it looks more natural. I also like having it up on a box as it allows me to display my vintage Santas underneath.

Hi we bought our first artificial tree last year, so I know what you mean, they take some getting used to......but yours looks pretty good to me.

I giggled at Greenthumb's wide choice of Christmas trees available.:o)
Good to have Christmas trees off the ground if possible, so that you can add Santas and other ornaments around at floor level. This tree looks really well-balanced and pretty. :o)

Hywel, the santas are from the 30's and 40's.

Your tree looks great, much more natural than mine. I'm using an artificial tree for the first time this year also, it's going to take alittle while for it to grow on me, I think.
Merry Christmas Mike !
