The 7-Foot Upside-Down Pre-Lit Christmas Tree
Evoking a 12th century Central European tradition of hanging a tree from the ceiling at Christmas, this unique 7' pre-lit fir is inverted to ensure a smaller footprint for less-spacious areas, and allowing more room for the accumulation of presents underneath. Originally designed for specialty stores to display delicate ornaments using a minimum of floor space, the unusual tapering shape allows the tree to stand in places that do not accommodate a traditional holiday tree, such as between two armchairs or in a corner.I know you’re laughing, but before you start mocking the idea of attaching a Christmas tree to the ceiling think about it – the upside down Christmas trees has loads of advantages.
It takes up less space in your living room, it leaves loads of room for presents and the inverted shape makes it easier to see ornaments which don’t get lost in the branches
But hold on, there is one fly in the ointment, one fundamental flaw with the inverted fir tree, and you don’t have to be Einstein to work out what it is…..….gravity… :santa:
So what do you want ?
