LOOOVEEEE IT!
I opened the box like a kid on Christmas. Our first big tree after almost 11 years of marriage as we finally have a house and room! But not a good corner for a big tree, need a slim one but I hate pencils. All trees I found that looked amazing were 7.5 feet and I was worried it'd be too tall. I fell in love with the idea of LED color changing lights as I am a traditionalist and like all white but I love options. Very few trees offer this amazing feature, let alone be priced below 175, let alone be slim and look full? Good luck! The tree I intended to buy sold out. I'm SO glad! I stumbled on this one. Slim, 6.5 (which I now think is too small but I'll discuss that later) and color changing at an amazing price? One review that was "meh" but still 4 starts? I usually never chance buying in that scenario. I hate returning mail order things. I felt any tree that had the LED color change feature is a higher end tree, I'll risk it.
The box arrives, I see glitter and white frosted tips. Wait, did I order THAT? check description. Says "glitter tree". Oh, guess I did. It doesn't look half bad, actually. Pushing out of my comfort zone lately has been paying off. It looks super full....I'll set it up and see. I didn't need the directions, 3 sections, lower branches filed out easier than any other tree I've seen that my parents bought. Keeps looking full as I go on. Get the top on. Huh, shorter than I'd like, but I can put on a topper without stool. It's too small, how are my parent happy with 6.5 feet? Is their tree this small? But it's REALLY nice. Let me put on the lights and see. I LOVE IT! but it's short.....but I hate returning. We'll, I always wanted more than one tree in the house. This is so petite we could move it to a few corners when we can afford a slightly larger tree in a few years......I don't want to hunt all over! Ok, if the family likes it we are keeping it! Heck, we are just keeping it. Who am I kidding?!
I'm attaching pics because I always appreciate seeing them. Please note we are still not settled in said new house, I have NOT finished fluffing the branches and haven't decorated it. And I still LOOOVEEEE it. I actually think it could stay "naked" and looks great with the white tips, glitter, pine cones and pretty lights and still look good. Tried to give an idea of the fullness and lights. There are a few blinking features too. Foot switch for that feature is nice. It has a slight lean to it that I'll have to fix when I have more hands to help. Perfect little tree. Glad I missed the glitter and white tips bc I wouldn't have ordered it and that would have been a shame. I'm thrilled. Please also excuse my paint swatch on the wall.
