This tree surprised me.  It has received many compliments.  I put it against a small wall space in my entry and left it undecorated for a week.  I decided to try something different and placed large aqua beaded balls.  The tree is slender and tall and made well. Easy to assemble.  Living in New Mexico for most of my life this fits in just great with my love for the artistic and hints at the beautiful blue skies we are famous for..
