Christmas in July sales have got me thinking ahead. Just ordered some illuminated ornaments and thinking what direction this years decor might go.

Hi everyone, I’m looking to buy a 7.5ft pre-lit Christmas tree with incandescent light. I really want this tree to have both multicolor and regular lights, and different light functions (twinkle, fade, etc.).

I’ve been searching online and I’ve only come across pre-lit LED light trees. Does anyone here have a tree that is similar to what I’ve described? If so, please let me know where I can purchase it!

Thanks ahead of time.

After seeing thousands of artificial Christmas tree setups over the years, I think branch count is one of the most misleading specs people focus on.

I’ve seen trees with fewer branches look way more realistic than ultra dense ones. One example is the image attached.

A lot of it comes down to how the branches are placed and how much depth the tree has. Some cheaper trees look flat because all the tips sit almost on the same outer layer. Meanwhile some trees with wider spacing actually look more natural because you can see depth inside the tree instead of a green wall.

Lighting changes things a lot too. Some trees honestly look average in product photos and surprisingly good at night once warm lights are on.

One thing I wish more websites showed is the side profile of the tree. Front photos hide a lot.

Curious what makes a tree look realistic to you guys, because people seem to notice completely different things. Some care about fullness, some about color, some about the shape of the branches.
