So, is anyone liking this tree?  I like the "snow spruce" version, it's similar to what the vendor used to call "snow kissed", with molded tips from white resin as well as green, and white and green mixed material in the twisted branches, too.  So you get the look of some snow/frost on your tree without the flocking falling off all the time.  I was hoping for this option, BUT I wanted the color prism light option.  Not the same ol' same ol' white/pastel/multi light combos.  So, sadly, for me, this tree is a pass, and unless Bethlehem Lights does another tree TSV closer to the holidays and it has both the "snow kissed" foliage coloration AND the color prism light options, I will be putting up the flocked color prism tree I bought "as is" last year.  

 

What is everyone else liking, or not, about this tree?   I know the sort of "spiky" shape is kind of different, do you all like it, or not?  Looking forward to hearing your opinions!

Re: New BL Christmas tree TSV?

I just finished having a "little spending party" over on Am Prime...then wake up to this temptation today! I love it!

 

I don't NEED this tree...I'm not a Christmas fanatic who starts thinking about it in July, decorating 1st of November, and really trying to simplify my holidays, and use all I have, which is a good amount.

 

In 2020 I bought a new tree, slim (because where I'm putting it now in my condo is dining area by the window there and needed slim) on Bed Bath Beyond...was a $600, color changing 6'ft tree, that on BBB I got for $125.00. I'd seen it in about 3 other retailers, same brand for the $600...I don't know why BBB sold it for less. And I've enjoyed it. The only thing I've missed is that it's more "pencil shaped" not too thin, still full etc, but I love the traditional shape of the TSV...and I LOVE all the many lights.

 

I'd want the 7' (sorry they don't have 6' my sweet spot tree)....I DON'T NEED THIS....

 

And have other expenses coming up this month that Am Prime put a dent in...so I'm trying to cool it today.

 

Beautiful trees, though!! 🎄

Re: New BL Christmas tree TSV?

This xmas in July thing makes me cringe-----just not into it until Oct/Nov---but I did buy a 24" BL tree, a couple years ago---I have a small apartment--so no room. And I love it! It is a blue spruce but has different types of fir needles, not just one type , so there is a lot of texture and slight colors of green. Has the lights with it and I put it on a small side table. It was a TSV that also included a choice for the wreath, garland , maybe the balls and then this tree. I like this brand tho and maybe IF I ever live in a bigger space, I may just buy a full sized tree again.

I purchased a BL tree a couple years ago H260024. Because we have this tree and love it I haven't really watched the TSV presentations. I will say mine is gorgeous and so easy to assemble. Everyone tells me how beautiful my tree is. 

 

I actually loved it so much I put it up early last year and decorated it for the Fall. If it's anything like mine I think you will love it.

@amyb I also had a spending party on Amazon the last few days!  I decided to stock up on items that I regularly use like shampoo, Elemis cleansing balm, eyeliner, etc. if the price was good.

 

In addition, I bought my toddler grandson a water table for a good Prime price.  I know he will love it!

 

 I never thought of this until I saw a video on Amazon Prime day of various items.  One was of a counter that fits over both your washer & dryer that has sides so items don't fall off.  Gives the top a nice smooth finish.  Comes in different colors and will give my laundry room a bit of a fresher look.

 

As for the tree, I bought it "as is" which was last year's model in January.  Great price and it works so I am excited to set it up this holiday season!

Re: New BL Christmas tree TSV?

I don't know why BL went to a 7 ft. tree instead of a 7 1/2 ft. tree. We have a Costco 7 1/2 ft. tree we bought at least 8 years ago and it's a perfect size for an 8 ft. ceiling. It's starting to droop, and we need a new one. But a 7 1/2 ft. tree would be best for us. Will probably go to Costco for the next one, if they still offer a 7 1/2 ft. tree.
