I absolutely LOVE this tree as much as I loved the fuller version of it, if not more! Its the perfect amount of flocking and lights ~ sparkles beautifully in the evening and looks gorgeous during the day when unlit, too. Its slender, but not too skinny. One added bonus I love about this tree and the fuller version I had in years prior is that it has a tree bark that also has flocking to it. So, youre not looking at a tree pole with some shoddy garland around it ~ its actually brown and has flocking. To me, that adds to the snowy realism and is extremely aesthetically pleasing!
