This thing rains glitter.  It is; however, quite pretty.  The battery pack, as mentioned in other reviews is quite large, but you can shape the branches easily. 

I edited my review to add that I just ended up donating this.   It didn't look like the picture, and had it, it may have been worth the price.  I should have sent it back.  I knew I would not end up displaying it next year, so hopefully someone will enjoy it, not knowing what it cost or what it was supposed to look like.
