Standard Rustic Brown or Custom Colors SILVER, GOLD & More!
The standard color is rustic brown which is a natural, neutral color, perfect for attaching live or silk flowers, vines and foliage along with hanging candle holders (included) and crystals (available separately here on our site). Custom colors such as PLATINUM Silver, GOLD, ANTIQUE GOLD and METALLIC BROWN are fantastic for crystal trees with no florals. Save money and hand-paint or spray-paint our standard RUSTIC BROWN trees yourself in custom colors.
We can professionally Custom Color your trees for you, but there is a cost if you add this service to your trees when placing in the shopping cart. For the current cost, just add a tree to your cart and choose a custom fnish color.
We use a professional compressor or powder coating equipment (depending on the finish), but you can get a similar effect on your own. If you have outdoor space or a garage, you can spray paint them. If you must paint inside, simply use a brush on paint that is non-toxic and gorgeous and works on metals. We prefer hand painting with aritists brushes over spray painting because there is no spray mess and you can find non-toxic paints in a jar with no solvents and that are not available in a spray can.

Crystal Trees Shoppers: Spend Less on the Trees & Buy Better Quality Crystals After all, the crystals are the star of the show. Save on the framework that holds up your crystals and or flowers and buy more magic ... the sparkle. Guests will remember the exquisite decoration of the trees and the sparkle of the trees, not the framework of the trees. The stunning crystals and gorgeous flowers are what your guests will rave about for years to come. Visit our crystal chains page for more information (and videos) on our crystals and why they deliver that magic unlike lower quality glass or acrylic plastic crystals. How to Get the Look Shown in the Picture For a fullness of crystals like the example tree shown above; tree shown above has approximately 30' feet of our fine quality crystals, an artificial brown vine wrapped around the trunk for decorative purposes and 20 stems of Macora Orchids . Make your crystal wedding trees or crystal event trees with our without live or silk flowers added. The crystals are simply hanging from their top hooks, from the branches. The candle holders are simply hooked with an additional linking pin or top hook, directly to the bottom of the crystal chains. The crystal chains on our tree are hung in 2' foot long lengths since the tree is adjusted higher than 4' tall at about 4.5' feet tall in the picture. Leave it down at 4' and you can hang shorter chains for a similar look.
How we Attached the Flowers
Orchid stems are attached to the branches using brown florist stem wire. Just cut in 1" inch long pieces and do it like a twist tie around the stem of the orchid and the metal tree branch. You can also attach them with brown florist tape. For aritificial flowers, you can even remove the flower heads and hot glue them to the branches individually. You could also use large "glue dots" which are easily removed afterwards.
We also wrapped the trunk part with a brown, flexible artificial vine from foot to the top of the trunk. It is not necessary, but we liked it. Other types of natural (dried grape vine for example) or artificial vines can also be used. If your tree will be painted a metallic color, while wrapped around the tree, you can paint the vine as well to match.
How Many Feet of Crystals We Used
We used approximately 30' feet of 16mm and 20mm Swarovski crystals. We used the one foot lenghts, hooked one to another by inserting the top hook of one into the bottom hole of the other chain (took just 1 second to do each one). The result? Quick, two foot long chains, perfect for our 4.5' tall tree. You can use our fine Swarovski crystals or our less expensive, but still fine Ethereal crystals.
You can use more or less feet of crystals, depending on your taste and your budget. Add more candle holders (sold separately), if you want to add more light for the crystals. You can hang your candle holders right up in the tree as shown in the inset picture (undecorted). However, hanging the candle holders very low and at staggered heights, helps light your crystals also at the bottom, not just at the top of the chains.
Once the crystal garlands were hung, we then took another crystals connector and put it through the metal candle hanger and hooked the hanger to the bottom of just some of the hanging crystal chains or garlands. You could also add a small piece of metal craft wire through the bottom hole of your crystal chain and use it like a twist tie at the top of the metal candle holder. This holds them even more securely. Done. Add Even More Candle Holders
Your adjustable metal tree comes with it's own hanging candle holders, but for more candle light, simply purchase additional hanging glass candle holders. Holders can use tealights (down in the cup) or votive candles (extend higher in the cup). If you use real candles instead of battery-powered ones such as acolyte or floralytes, be sure you check how long the candle burn-time is. You don't want to have a 5 hour event with candles that burn out in two hours. Get long burning candles or battery powered. For more candles, just go back to the Adjustable Metal Trees Page of our site and add the extra hanging candle holders to your order in addition to your trees. A Tree with 12 or even more hanging candles looks even more amazing and fills in the empty spaces on your branches. This is especially good if you plan to use fewer crystals or flowers. - Hanging Crystals and hanging candles only

How to Adjust a Tree in the Case of Crookedness
Trees are each handmade by skilled artisans which means they vary a bit. Once set up, if your tree does not look straight, simply hold the base down while you pull or lean on the trunk, pushing in the opposite direction to straighten out.
We stand behind our product. Because we are reputable, we mention and acknowledge the following possibility: If necessary, we would replace only the foot part if tree will not stand properly due to the position of the vine-like parts of the foot. |
