Prefer green, but I also use a small white tree for my Madame Alexander doll ornaments

I love green but also don't mind the snow flocked look.

Gotta say I do love the traditional look of a green tree, but I'm not against some colorful options. The upside down tree thing is really cool too.

I prefer green for myself, but I'm open to other colors. I once saw a white tree decorated in black, white and silver. I really liked it. It looked like something you would see at a swanky Manhattan cocktail party.

I prefer green because I love the look of bringing the outdoors inside. But I'm also fond of white, with colorful decorations and lights on it- it seems whimsical.

My tabletop trees are all different colors, some of which are aluminum. I don't think I'd want a full-size aluminum, but I've been able to appreciate them when I see them elsewhere.

My main one is green, but the white one in our library (Harry Potter style) was cool with colored lights (white wire)... :home:

Here it is...7598

I always do natural green and once in a while I won't mind a flocked tree.

I had my first experience with a flocked tree this past Christmas- very pretty, but a bit of a mess.

I enjoy your purple tree. I might try and find a small purple and try out a Disney tree myself!

Sounds good. I also use to have a lime green tree and a pink tree, but I just had too many. Still have 9 in various sizes... :waving:

You'll need all your trees for all the new ornaments each year!

I'm old fashioned and use real trees, I just love the smell of them in the house.

I still have my green tree, but I have purchased a flocked one to use this year. It should be an interesting change.

I love real trees, but they just do not last as long and sometimes the branches aren't strong enough to hold some ornaments... :santa1:

I was outvoted on getting a real tree! They were worried about the fire hazard. But once I got past the initial sadness, I realized I could have the tree up much longer, could keep the lights on more often, not worry about it drying the tree out and I could have a fire going in the fireplace right next to the tree. I'm trying to focus on the positive.

I always loved the smell of the tree. :smitten: I think I will have a real tree again at some point, but probably not as the main tree. :elf2: I really miss it when I see people taking their trees home- it was such a happy custom going to get the tree.

Good memories so say the least. I do get some of the pine scented ornament sticks. They do add a nice aroma... :tree1:

I use essential oils in diffusers to get the scent. I haven't been able to duplicate a real tree smell exactly, but it's something. :santa-smiley:

I have to admit, the sticks come close. Of course they do not last too long, but I love to hang them as I am leaving and then get that first intake when I've come home... :santa:

considering decorating the tree with just flameless candle lights. :christmastree:

Still prefer the basic green, but now and then a flocked one looks great as well... :christmastree:

The ones that look like clip on candles? Because that's what I was considering also!

Me either. Green is preferred, but this year, I will be putting up a white one as well... :home:
