Instant Christmas tree

In looking at the David Stark Collection on the West Elm website, I ran across this photo.  Interesting, modern concept for a whimsical, instant tree.

I love the concept.  While this photo shows a painted tree, a tree could very easily be created on a wall in removable electrical tape, painter's tape, etc.  In whatever color you like.  Add some 3D effects like a tacked on garland shown above or a tree topper. 

This is perfect for those that don't want the fuss of putting up a full tree or maybe travel frequently and don't feel it's worth getting out all the hubbub only to enjoy the tree a few days, etc. 

On Etsy, there are even large vinyl trees available.  Very cute! 

 

These don't have to take the place of a regular tree.  Put up your traditional tree and then maybe put one of these in another room, like a child's room or a bathroom. Add it as a backdrop to a buffett table for some easy decor.

And wouldn't it be great to pile presents "under" the tree?

Very cute. I actually made one out of Christmas paper & a foil star one year because we were so broke we couldn't afford a tree. It looked great though. I may make one for my Kid's rooms this year.
