Most cheap indoor fake trees have the wrong shade of green, it's either too much teal, or too much lime. I live in a tropical region, so the trees are more of a lush grassy green instead of a cooler forest green.So I spray paint it with a lush green to make it feel more natural.

I don’t care what bulb it has, I just love the lantern  :laugh:. If you could get it to West Sussex, England it would be great 👍🏻.  Further discussion can be done in my personal messages, just say if you have one here   :)

All my trees inside are fake, most range from 4 to 7.5 foot (have a few of those oddball colored trees too, which I really like!). Nearly all get LED lights.

There's a big old sprucetree in the backyard that when it was allot smaller I used to put lights on (its now close to 40').
Sometimes I'll put lights on a couple junipers in the frontyard, but thats it for decorating plant-life... Lights go on the house itself.

Digging in and out repeatedly a live tree for use as Christmas tree seems wrong to me. I would leave it alone

To me (as one who only symbolically uses a Christmas tree if at all - i'm not Christian, but i like celebrating along anyway), it's either a fake one indoors, or just throw some lights on whatever grows outside (even if it is not the correct type of tree)

But do take them off before the tree grows over them and entangles them - They dont belong there

BTW, the dollar store equivalent has decorative fake trees of unnatural colors (totally White, totally Black) of about 5 ft height, in a weightened pot, for about $30. And they are also the wrong type of tree. Still, i can imagine trying them out. (I don't, because waste of money and resources)

@sol, that truly means a lot! Thank you man! Merry Xmas! Believe it or not, this set up looks better in person, despite the slightly crooked shelves.
I've been using this set up since 8 months ago, (Almost 9 months) which is why all of those lamps have fair-weather end blackening,
and also electrode filament debris... classic sign of heavy usage! Even though the shelves will never fall, I may need to adjust them a bit
more to get a more professional look from this, although it does look pretty impressive as is.
I figured I'd go ahead and reveal this set up since it's Christmas, and since things are beginning to finally get better.
Also, thanks @High Intensity and @joseph_125... Joseph helped me find the fixtures downstairs and recommended
I use those wooden boards you see behind the floating shelves, which helped to act as a bridge for the studs that were
two feet apart from each other... and High Intensity helped me find those former LED fixtures upstairs.

I've seen this fixture twice, no idea the model.

Looks like a Se'lux Euro but it isn't.

Anyone?
