It's far too "modern" for me - NO!

I just don't see how this could possibly be more environmentally friendly than a tree farmed xmas tree. It looks like it uses up just about as much would, and both need to be transported. And the fake tree needs to be manufactured. At least I can compost my real tree at the end. Plus, my real tree is GREEN bringing life into my otherwise winterly environment!

Back in the early 1970s, my parents constructed a Christmas tree from yarn (a renewable resource, thank you, sheep!) and a hula hoop (to form the found bottom), with some sort of loop at the top for hanging from the ceiling. Ornaments hung down into the middle; it was very mod; they used it for years; and it was positively greener than jigsawing a tree out of wood.

This probably explains much about why I'm more impressed with creative DIY than with yet another "green" product to buy.
