@lucymo Thanks for the HU Lucymo! Thankfully, I don't need them. Last year they were only available in white and I got one set.

And for those who don't know...these are HUGE! They are 'branches', not like smaller picks...and they are 26" long. Just an FYI for those thinking of ordering them

@Susan Louise, Hey there, I have the white from last year too. They are amazing and I'm thinking about the champagne but that color can be tricky. Sometimes it has too much silver to work for me since I do mostly gold or some chocolate. But love that true champagne color.

I hope this is a sign of more LR things to come. I hope the bay leaf ones come back, too. I need more of those this year.

SL, since the branches are so long and I'm not sure if I can use one that long, are these good to cut apart and use more as a pick? Thanks for your input and advice.

@PeterDM Hi Peter, I am also hoping for the return of the Bay leaf picks as I only received one box last year due to a shipping error. I need more and they are really the best ones that were offered, IMO. These are really nice too and a great size for those places where we need a larger size than the regular picks. Seems like I'm getting a lot of emails about items returning so hopefully, the items that we need will be back soon.

Thank you for pointing out the size of these. I know that I had certainly forgotten that QVC even offered both branches and picks in this style. These are huge! I got a set of the champagne picks as is last year, but haven't gotten to use them yet. I don't know that I could use these larger branches.

They are great for inserting into a tree, SHOPR, also a thick garland, and one could cut off the stem to make them shorter, I suppose.

@lucymo

@PeterDM

Do you have the item number for the bay leaves? I have two sets of them, but they are not listed in my last year's orders.

I found I have a set of the white cedar picks,too, I remember I used these down my table instead of garland from Valeries. I bought three different garlands and they were either too stiff and unbendable, too plastic-y looking, or too huge and bulky. Those got donated this year. Maybe I should buy the champagne color to go with Lisa's sleigh, but I don't know if they are match-y or at least, coordinate. The picks don't take up much storage space which I have to always think about now.

I thought these were Lisa's glitter branches, but they are Valeries. I cancelled my order as these would not match Lisa's, which I would have in the same room.

@Nomore Hi, the item # for the Bay Leaf picks was H203848 last year, maybe the same if it comes back in this year. I hope we can get more of them. I think they're the best.

Re: Cedar Branches Are Back!

lucymo — Tue, 15 Sep 2015 20:04:20 GMT

@mousiegirl, if you look underneath the heading on the product page you will see the "designed for Lisa Robertson". They should be the same.

@mousiegirl, The champagne should be a very pale gold but some champagne items look silver if put along side of other gold items. I only really use gold or chocolate decor as a rule so I need to see the champagne branches on air before I commit. I hope they last that long. I like the pale gold color better than some of the gold that is such a brassy shade of gold.

@mousiegirl, @lucymo, I would also add that the Silver are very pale and almost white. I purchased two sets of the silver to put on my main tree, which is white with white lights, and they were barely noticeable on the white tree. This year, I plan to use the Silver Bay Leaf Picks on my main tree, as I think they are much nicer. I used the bay leaf ones on the 3 white trees in my bedroom last year, and they looked stunning. I may not put up trees in the bedroom this year. Too much work!
