![]() Beautiful 2' - 5' Focal Point Centerpiece Trees Draw attention to a Bride's Table, Champagne Bar, Guest Book Table or Place 3 trees along a stunningly eye catching Buffet Table. Consider using one as a memorable Seating Card Tree to greet your guests upon arrival. Place one crystal tree on either side of an altar, the possibilities are endless. Makes a fabulous home decor tree after the event. The Tree in the Picture Directly Above Left shows one of our approximately 5' Manzanita Crystal Trees that we did for a customer. Our customer purchased it painted a dark gold and re-sprayed it a more metallic, yellow gold. It is hung with 24 total ropes of 16mm and 24mm Crystals. Why 1 Ft. Crystal Ropes Work Better & Saves Money As you can see in the two pictures above, even on a tall 5' tree picture on left) and on a 4.75' tree (picture on right), there really is no need to use 1 yard or 1 meter long ropes or chains unless you plan to separate them into shorter 1 ft. or 2 ft. ropes, or if you plan to loop each long rope over the branches so it appears to be 2 ropes when hanging down. The branches on a tree are staggered from high to low, this means, yard long ropes or chains would be too long for most branches, especially any mid-way or low branches. If you are not using one foot or two foot ropes, as you can see, a 3 foot (1 yard) rope or even longer, meter long rope would be dragging on the table. The Famous Crystal Tree seen in Bride's magazine (Project #1 on our Stunning Decor Projects Page 1) used 1 meter ropes, draped over the branches to hang down like two ropes and that was a big 6' tree. Using them shorter in the first place allows them to hang neater, by placing them on desired small branches by the attached top hook/pin. Looping over the top looks messier when seeing it up close. Using our 1 foot ropes also stretches your budget by covering more of the tree, but using less footage of crystal. The Tree in the Picture on the Above Right is of our Complete Crystal Tree Set. It comes truly complete, including fine artificial or real wood branches (artificial shown), 20 fine Swarovski Lead Free crystal ropes(a 50/50 mix of 16mm' 24mm' each 1 ft. long), a 2' or 3' tall heavy glass tree stand with stabilizing foot and matching color pebbles (adds more weight for excellent stability). Sets in Silver (shown), Gold, Brown Onxy, Jet Black and Custom colors available. Hanging glass votives not included. As you can see, getting the tree standing securely is simple using only matching, painted pebbles inside the glass stand. The snug fit at the top of the tapered glass tree stand holds them securely. The stand is heavy glass for weight and The wider square glass "foot" finishes it off with even more added stability. Our Swarovski crystal does not need computer generated or moving "sparkle" added to give the illusion of shimmer. It's so good, it just does it's thing. This tree can hold at least 4 or 5 times as much crystal as shown and can hold longer ropes as well. You can quickly link your 1' ft. ropes into 2' or 3' ropes, but we think 1 ft. ropes spreads the crystal out, stretching your budget and looks like more, with less. We manufacture and sell these Complete Crystal Tree sets (shown above) with real wood branches (gilded gold, silver, black or custom colors), and heavy glass tree stand, complete with the crystal ropes include or without. You can order with 50% less crystal, 50% more crystal, 100% more crystal or 200% more crystal, etc. depending on your taste and budget. Just add to your cart, then choose the amount of crystal and type of branches (artificial as shown or real) and color theme (example: silver branches and pebbles).

Peters, Buzzards Bay, MA Candle Safety & ALL Centerpiece Trees including Metal METAL trees as well as artificial and real wood trees, candelabra, pillar candles, etc. have ALL been involved in fires at venues so battery candles are ALWAYS safer. As with ANY centerpiece using candles including ANY metal, simulated or real tree, if fire is involved, event planners should consider getting liability waivers. Our trees are safer with regard to falling over since they are not metal. 3' or taller METAL trees can easily fall over if a table-cloth is pulled by a guest or table is rocked, they are a double problem: fire hazard along with the risk of injury from super hard, heavy, sharp metal branches injuring a guest AND dumping candles in their laps. The base or bottom part is the only part of your tree that should be heavy, in order to keep it solidly planted on the table. For any centerpiece, if safety is the number one concern and real flame candles are a must, they are best sat around the centerpieces ON THE TABLE. Otherwise, hang them 9" - 18" or more below branches and there is no way they will damage our trees or branches or real wood trees for that matter (unless it's turned over; the same as with metal trees). The other option is to do what most venues now require: use flickering battery powered (available on our site) amber colored simulated flame candles. See our Crystal Tree FAQ Page for more details, benefits and comparisons between our simulated versus unnatural looking metal trees. ![]() The picture directly above shows 2 Gilded silver 4.75' artificial manzanita branches decorated with our 1 ft. Swarovski Lead Free crystal ropes; branches SKU #XAMB-S55). This tree is not really "hovering" without a base (glass vase was edited out of picture). Two branches can actually hold up to 3 - 4 x as much crystal as shown, however, branches would have to be secured in a weighted base, planter, pot or glass cylinder. Three or more branches together can hold even more crystal. We manufacture and sell both real and artificial trees already mounted in weighted bases.

On our realistic looking simulated tree above, candles are hung at least 8" - 10" below any branch. Although candle on left appears to be close due to the angle at which tree was photographed, it is actually well below the branch & not close enough to cause damage to branch or anything else. Only a highly foolish person (who probably should not have matches!) would hang candles close enough to heat or cause fire on ANY branches, synthetic, real wood or otherwise, we state for the record, that fire is added risk, no matter what the centerpiece and event planners/florists should get liability waivers if hanging candles.
