Oh (aluminum) Tannenbaum!
Wednesday, December 3, 2008 at 07:32AM For some people Christmas is a time to let go and bring out the shrunken apple head dolls, reams of multicoloured lights, odd tchotchkes and battered nativity scenes. For others it's still an oppurtunity to make a style statement.
The tree below, snagged from Hammacher Schlemmer, is a redux of a classic 1950's aluminum tree in all it's sparkly artificial glory. And, while the homeowner didn't go to town and plunk for the Color Wheel projector from HS (now it's green, oh, now it's blue!) he did head to The Bay to grab those swank turquoise glass ornaments. Chic and simple!

Mmm! The Sally Ann on Parliament was showing off two pink/sliver trees in their front window last week. Sadly, it's been snagged.
Always the way, lol. Check out Michael's for mini silver tinsel trees and pink flocked versions too, and I've even heard tell of red trees showing up at Wal-Mart this season, though that could just be an urban legend...
Cheers, Arren
