It is such a lovely little tree! For years we had a real tree, but with the baby starting to crawl we did not want to worry about sharp needles. It is our first artificial tree and we are very happy with it. It fits perfectly into a small space we had in mind, and has just the right amount of lights, pine cones and berries. Flocking and twigs give the tree a whimsical look. It was shipped very fast, well packaged and super easy to set up.
