How did you support the green artificial tree in the urn? From the pictures at the bottom of this post, it looks like it is a standard cross stand similar to the trees I have had in the past.
Hi Karla,
The urn is an actual Christmas tree stand. They sell different styles at different places. I think I found this at Frontgate years ago. I have since painted it. :)
hola…he visto tu pregunta ,,no sé si lo tendrás solucionado..para poner los árboles en maceteros,,tienes que hacerle una base,( es una base como en la que ponen los parasoles de los jardines),,lo haces a medida de tu macetero y tu árbol.LO Pones dentro y ahí acoplas tu árbol,,,espero me hayas entendido,,,para verlo bien ve al Armario HN,,es una página de una tienda de decoración….buscas sus publicaciones y encontrarás un video de como se hace…
I already have two artificial trees and I just bought a new one from wayfair. It is the 9 ft flocked long pine needles tree. I just got it yesterday and can’t wait to decorate this year. I also have a 8 months old puppy and I hope he doesn’t destroy it or peeing there. I think I have to block the tree from him with baby gate.
Love this post! So comparing the Lowe’s flocked tree to the Balsam Hill tree, do you like one better than the other? I am SO bummed I didn’t snag it last year but the Balsam Hill tree looks really nice too!
Both trees are beautiful but entirely different.
I love the tone of the green on the Balsam more and the flocking looks real however… as a result, it sheds quite a bit.
The Lowes tree is beautiful but I felt it was a bit darker on the inside greenery on the limbs so I layered a little cotton on the branches near the trunk to brighten it a bit more. I also felt it needed another string of lights down the middle.
The price points are completely different as well. I like the Balsam better however it is twice the cost or more. One safe way to make a decision would be to order the Balsam and return it if you aren’t happy? Or try a different tree like the Lowe’s for the price and see what you think. :)
At the end of the day you need to be happiest. Hugs!
Thank for you post on trees. It helped me a lot and I just took the plunge and ordered a Balsam hill Frasier fir. I can’t wait to decorate this year. I did not get flocked ( even though they are beautiful ) because we have 4 cats ( 2 came home with my daughter from college ) and I worry about them jumping into the tree and it being too messy.

So funny!!! Good luck with that.. ;) Hugs!
Beautiful trees! I am looking for a slim flocked tree if anyone has any recommendations.
That’s a great question Stephanie.. I love flocked slim trees. I’m always on the lookout. :)

Can you share from where you purchased your wrapping paper? Beautiful! Thank you!
Thanks! A combination of places… Homegoods, Target and TJMAXX :) Hugs!
