do you put your tree in a corner

or do you display it right up front?

Always in a corner when I was putting one up. I would put mirrors up behind the tree which reflected the lights!

 

BTW, that seaside tree is gorgeous.

Re: do you put your tree in a corner

My condo is open floor plan, living/dining room...one year did a real tree in a corner, by a side chair & window ...corner of living room, where ceiling slants down to the ground, creating a nook there. Pretty, but took lots of moving around of furniture. Since then have a bigger side chair, and in 2020 bought a pre-lit slim tree, that wouldn't have fit there anyway....I put it in front of the dining room window, head of the table, but that looks out into the whole living/dining space.

 

I also put a 3 ft table top tree in front of the couch, by the fireplace. 

 

@raspberrygal That beautiful seaside cottage, shabby chic photo is right up my alley. Love that.

@raspberrygal Sitting here this morning with that image above, crackling fire YT scene on my tv. Smiley Happy (Easier and cleaner than using my actual fireplace!) (which I'd love to replace with an electric insert at some point, and only because I couldn't do gas here.)

 

Anyhoo...love the vibe...IF I had that beautiful seaside cottage, this is just how I'd want it.

I recently moved.  If I even put up a tree, it will be in front of the large window.

Re: do you put your tree in a corner

Mine is a small 24" one from Beth Lights so it sits on a small round accent table in front of my fireplace---no room for much more-- but when I had a house, the tree was in a corner or in front of livingroom windows. LOVE that seaside decor tree!!~!~

Beautiful tree, beautiful view!!  I love the seaside themed ornaments and the pillows on the sofa!!

 

My tree is always in a corner of our living room but still can easily be seen from a front window and as soon as you enter the house.

@amyb We have a wood burning fireplace in our family room.  Once upon a time we made real fires but that was many years ago.  At one point I did get an electric fireplace insert but I would like to get a new one....one that has a crackling sound and also heats.  Our current one doesn't have the heat option and it is old.
