These icicles are beautiful and look so realistic! I ordered two boxes to have plenty of the smaller ones for our Christmas tree. They look just like the ones Mom used to hang on our family tree. I am giving a 4/5 because many of the larger icicles arrived broken. 3 out of the 4 - 11inch (remember I ordered two boxes) - arrived broken as well as 3 of the 6 - 9 inch icicles. However, I am not returning or replacing these because honestly I am not sure what to do with these larger ones and the smaller ones (which were what I really wanted) arrived in great condition. 

In summary, beautiful product that hopefully will become a family treasure however the packaging definitely needs some work as most of the larger icicles did not arrive intact.
