Hi there! This video was made last year and when I decorated this year I decided I didn’t need both the spotlight and the umbrella light so I don’t have the spotlight that I can readily film. I do have some video of how it looks in a different tree from above so you can maybe get a better idea. Do you use Instagram? If so, I’ll DM you some video. Just let me know your handle. Cheers!

Hi, I'm from colorado and just got my 12' balsam hill tree. Would love to see any good you have for getting the top couple of sections assembled. Seemed like i had to reach pretty far with heavy sections to get assembled
@themadeupokie11 ай бұрын
Hi in Colorado! And congrats on your new tree! I continue to love mine. But I definitely understand the challenge with assembling towards the top. Typically I use our 10’ A-frame ladder and shove it as close to the tree as possible to minimize the reach I have to do with hose heavy sections. But last year we actually rented a lift to hang ornaments from the ceiling and I made use of that to assemble and decorate the tree. That made it so easy, but was definitely a bit “extra”. Good luck and happy decorating!

Hi! Thank you for the feedback! Currently I’m using my tree skirt from my previous tree, which had the same diameter, but the stand wasn’t as tall as this one so I think it worked a bit better on the previous. It’s a 60” skirt and while it’s workable, I think I want to replace with something around 65” at some point. Hope that helps. Happy decorating!!
