I bought a skinny tree on sale and just put it together.  I don't like it.  I don't know what I was thinking I was getting but it looks out of place.  I'm putting my big tree up too now cause the skinny tree looks like it won't hold many ornaments at all. Any ideas where I might display this skinny one?  I tried a corner of my living room and it looks too tiny.  It looks strange in the kitchen but that's where it is for now.

How tall is the skinny tree?

Can you display it outside?

I can only use it indoors.  It's about 5 feet.

Target carries them, they were designed for small apartments.  I think it would be cute in a bedroom, how about that?

Do you have a fireplace you can put it next to?

I will put our big tree in the den, because that's where we spend most of our time. I have three skinny trees. Each one has a theme. One skinny is in the guest room, but I change it according to the seasons. One skinny is in the archway between the living room and formal dining room. It's perfect there because there is room to walk around both sides. The third skinny is in the memorabilia room. I love all the trees because they are different and pretty accents to each individual space.

I think a skinny would be fun in the kitchen decorated with all kitchen-related items: cookie cutters, spatulas, measuring cups, kitchen mitts, etc.

Have fun with the skinny. You'll be surpried where you can put it and love it!

I have a skinny tree and like it.  I think it looks best in a small corner.  The good thing about skinny trees, they can be stuck just about anyplace and look good.   

Maybe it will "grow" on you.

Haha, I know what you mean.  I bought a 'flat' Christmas tree.  It's like a wall hugger.  Looked great in the store.  I'm going to have to visit the store I purchased it (more like a florist boutique) and see how they have them decorated.  Unfortunately, the place is hundreds of miles from my home!

You already put your Christmas tree up???????????  Do you celebrate Thanksgiving?

We bought a skinny tree last year and I LOVE it!  It's 6 ft and you're right, it doesn't hold as many ornaments but it's also not spreading out 8 feet from the base! It fits perfectly, goes up easily, carries up and down the basement stairs easily and everyone can see the TV without cracking their necks.....
