I haven't decided yet whether I will actually light them up. So far, in daylight, I like them without using the batteries. We'll see.
@Snicks1 Glad you got two good pedestals. Did you get any of the square ones before the round ones came out? I have several colors in that shape too. If memory serves correctly, they were $20 in 'as is' too.
@lucymo, I did not get any of the square pedestals. I couldn't, at the time, decide if I wanted them, so ultimately just didn't order. I don't really have a lot of space to use them, so had to make the decision to make myself say no. lol
@Snicks1 My, how you have changed. lol Back in the day when we had will power and could say no, now those were the days.

@lucymo, Lol, isn't that the truth! There was a time I could talk sense into myself. That seems to have left me.

@lucymo Yes, I ordered a set of the 'as is' trees in 'pearl' a few days ago and agree that they will be very versatile..which was the main reason why I ordered them.
In the past, I only ordered 2 other sets of glass trees and sadly only used them once since they were just too elegant in design to fit into any other vignette I made or thought of. In fact, everything in the pic below was given to charity the following year (2015)...the plastic leaf pics, angel, red & gold glass trees and the MG finials all went to Goodwill.
A lesson learned for sure! When I bought all the pieces, I certainly believed I would have used them more than once. I now make sure that is one of the top reasons why I buy a new piece of decor. I must be able to think of several uses.
With the new pearl trees, I can visualize them amongst other trees I already have and will mix in well

@Susan Louise I had those trees too but not sure if they were in the last donation. Honestly, I didn't care that much for them. The red wasn't really red and the design in the gold glitter just didn't work for me at the time. I go in Goodwill sometimes looking for pieces that can be cleaned and refinished and I can say I've never seen anything like what you have in the picture. I believe if it makes it to the floor it is snatched up immediately.
I think you'll be pleased with the pearl. They can be elegant or used in other themes, I believe. They can be those special pieces. I am doing our DR in white magnolias this year so hoping to use some of my white pieces in there. it isn't a really large room and not a lot of flat space other than the dining table. Since we use the table at least once a week in time leading up to the holidays I will decorate it quite a few times.

@Susan Louise- I got two of the pineapple lamps on your recommendation when they first showed up in "as is" and I love them! They are on my mantle, and will eventually be replaced with Valerie's buffet lamps.

@DecorDiva Then what will be your plans for the pineapple lamps?
