I should have read the description more closely. I didnt realize it had so much glitter on it. And it also has these little pieces, I guess, that are supposed to be ice. But they look like rock candy. And in fact, these little pieces do fall off. Im concerned my pets might eat one, Or you might want to be mindful of small children too. In the picture, they have ornaments hanging from the tree. Its a cute idea. However, hanging ornaments, I think any kind of hanging mechanism or string is going to flick these little white pieces off even more. So probably not best to decorate it. The glitter seems to be staying on it. Overall though, its a pretty tree. I just wish it didnt have all the glitter stuff all over it. It would have been better if it looked like just a pine tree. Nice, soft, warm white lit. Excited to use it as a replacement for a tree. Less work. The cord if very long, which is good. And love that it comes part for storage.
