Whimsical “Upside Down” Christmas Trees

My home is rather a traditional/transitional style. When I saw these upside down Christmas trees for the first time, I had to have one!..Though rather pricey when they first came out (like all new things) I waited till they went on clearance after the holidays. I have a free standing flocked tree and one in our media room that is a corner wall mounted tree. It adds just the touch of whimsey needed to balance out the traditional decorations.

This flocked upside down tree sits in the corner of the sunroom. I chose red ornaments as they stand out beautifully against the flocking.

    They’re both beautiful but I especially like the flocked one. Now, is it technically the “top” of the tree or the bottom. LOL
