Would love to see a picture of your “find”.
That's great, glad it was a success for you!
Finally took it out of the bag and worked off and on to get the "branches" half way decent looking. The picture is of my current tree (decorated, etc) and just the little tree.

The little tree REALLY is littler! lol It doesn't come with lights and I don't have a small enough string to try to put onto it. So far, haven't found any after-Christmas sales of a small string. I also know that the little tree is too small to support our angel on top, but I always wanted just a simple red bow like our first couple of Christmases.
Anyway, I think I'll keep it and see what happens next year. Hate the thought of having to box up the big tree again, though.

Your new tree is about the size of ours. I put it on an end table. Used four 50 light strands and this year had to replace one- not hard at all. I don't put any ornaments on except a small white satin- smocked wings, angel my mom made as ornaments for the 4 kids. I am very satisfied with it and it just goes up the attic steps into its spot and that's it!
I have 4 little trees at this point, and I like them all. I was able to buy little strings of LED lights for 2 of them, and the other 2 don't need lights.

Rosa The egg art is funny. I like your ornament tree in a basket.
Thanks, IL. The egg is an oil painting by a local artist, and it makes me smile. The ornament tree is on a basket table. You can't really tell from the picture, but I have so many cool ornaments on there: a spider's web, a bat, an opossum, a koala, lots of birds and insects.
What a cool idea! I really like the look of the mushroom tree, and I don't even like mushrooms, but the colors and shapes are very appealing.
My tree has become sort of a default horse tree, although I have some other things, too. I have a few glass ornaments remaining, but not too many, but I do have my two favorite ornaments from when I was a child. I also like to buy them when we go someplace fun, like this year I got a Polly's Pancake House horse.
I like trees 3 and 4, rr. I wish I could get away with those little trees, but in all honesty, I do like some of our bigger ornaments. We'll see.
nswef - how do you get 4 strands of 50 lights on a little tree like this? I have a strand of 100 lights, but it is WAY too big for the tiny tree! I'm in the process of trying to find some fairy lights that can go on it.

Happy stuff,, They aren't that long, and I start from the top and sort of drape them in a wobbly line, back toward the center. I don't have any ornaments except the little angel.
