What Artificial Christmas Tree Size and Shape Should I Get?

Artificial Christmas trees come in various sizes and shapes. To narrow down your options, choose a spot to determine if you have space for a small Christmas tree or a tall one.

How Realistic Will an Artificial Christmas Tree Look?

Going artificial doesn’t mean saying goodbye to the look and feel of your favorite tree. We design many of our Balsam Hill® Christmas trees after real species—from the shape and texture of the needles to the nuances in color. Best of all, they stay evergreen and need little to no maintenance.

What Christmas Tree Lights Are Best?

Lights bring your Christmas tree to life even without decorations. If you prefer to string your own lights, you need at least 100 lights per foot of the tree. Double or triple the amount if you love the look of brighter, more intense lights on your tree.

What Are My Options for Easy Set-up Christmas Trees?

Save time and energy for things that matter most with features that simplify your Christmas tree assembly. Our trees are designed with hinged branches that fan out and in for quick set-up and storage. We also include a sturdy metal stand with rubber feet to keep your floor clean and beautiful. All artificial Christmas trees are compressed for shipping, so you need to fluff the branches to make them look fuller. To make set-up even easier, we’ve incorporated exclusive technology in our premium artificial Christmas trees: Flip Trees®

What Else Should I Consider When Buying a Christmas Tree?

here are other things to look into when choosing your artificial Christmas tree: Price Range Artificial Christmas trees often cost more than real trees because they last season after season. Find one that suits your budget, from slim space-savers to tall, highly realistic trees. Prices vary based on Christmas tree size, needle composition, light types, and set-up features. Key Decorations All Balsam Hill trees are made with sturdy, flexible branches to support ornaments of various size and weight. You can layer assorted decorations, use ribbons, and fill gaps with picks. Christmas Tree Toppers If using a tree topper, make sure there’s at least 6 inches of clearance from the top of the tree topper and your ceiling. Our trees have a strong top branch tip to secure your topper. For heavier toppers, use a tree topper stabilization kit. Christmas Tree Skirts, Collars, & Stands Choose a tree skirt that’s at least 6 inches bigger than the full width of the tree. It should completely cover the stand and be larger than the entire diameter of the base of your tree.
