MidwestMama Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I really want a half tree to put up next year in our dining room. It needs a wide tree because its in front of our front windows and its seen from the street, but I don't have much depth for the tree in the room to keep the furniture there. So, I'd like a half tree. It is fine to be unlit, I can add lights. Not multi colored lights though, if its pre-lit, I need it clear/white. I am fine with a green or silver tree. I've never seen one in a store, so I can't stalk them after the holidays to get them on clearance. Anyone have any ideas on this? Our room has 8 feet ceilings, so I'd like a 7-8 foot tall tree. I am ok if it doesn't fit a topper. Our main tree is in the other room and has our topper on it. Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidwestMama Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 My husband is having a heart attack about the price, I'm hoping to find a cheaper one... I wonder if just cutting the branches shorter on one side would work. Not all of the way to the halfway point, but part way would make it more slim.

HomeinKS Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 When you assemble the tree you don't have to put the branches on the back half. Or you could possibly bend the branches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidwestMama Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 I bought a tree on clearance at Kohls today. Its a pretty one and narrow, yet not narrow enough. I plan to either bend, fold, or if I have to, cut, off some of the lowest (therefor widest) branches so that it fits in my space. It isn't exactly what I wanted, but will work for a few years at least and was much closer to my price point. Its a pretty silver one. I had wanted to buy it before, and looked at several Kohls. Then today, when out of town (and a day after spending $50 in Kohls cash and having the 20% off code) I found one. Ugggg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansieDZ Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Glad you got something, Midwest Mama! I don't know if you do yard/garage/rummage sales,but I often see trees for sale during these. I get most of my "snowpeeps" (I collect snowmen things) during the summer so keep your eyes peeled! At least you have something to start the season with next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
