Ours is not so full, which is what I like because I like to see the trunk of the tree. Our trunk is so real that noone can believe it is a fake one. That being said, I like to put the ornaments clear in to the trunk too, rather than just on the outside. We are not likely to ever get a new one!Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16797132860053426517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-22544934295739220482009-12-08T22:29:06.539-08:002009-12-08T22:29:06.539-08:00That's a great idea!

Part of it, ...Boy, that's a good question, Jen. Part of it, for me, really IS the fragrance. The candles and sprays don't quite capture it well enough for my ridiculously picky sense of smell. Having said that, we WILL invest in a fake tree eventually, because they look more and more realistic all the time, and they come pre-lit. (A marvel in itself!) This ease of use reaaally appeals to me as I get older. I wouldn't be surprised if we change our ways in the next couple of years.<br /><br />=)Susan Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16049586085703324088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-10813574876187030622009-12-08T12:08:10.369-08:002009-12-08T12:08:10.369-08:00My question is this: why not buy artificial?

And I've invested in great evergreen candles, so don't tell me it's the smell.<br />I'd really like to know.jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01313127576303289593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-73384145258199024822009-12-08T10:41:54.787-08:002009-12-08T10:41:54.787-08:00What a beautiful tree!

We have a fakey one (the last live one we had had something CHEWING inside it)due to cost considerations, but its a "slim cut" one - I love the way they look.
