Wish I had seen this earlier! We have always had real trees but here in Florida, but I wanted to enjoy a long  holiday this year without worrying about dropping Pine Needles, tree drying out before its prime etc. This is the perfect size, will store easily in my closet, and still lets the Florida sunshine in! I decorated it with handmade ornaments to create that coastal look that I was going for. Cant wait to see it in the evening
