inverted christmas trees??

image found on web
inverted christmas trees seem to be all the rage this year. honestly, i had never heard of it before, so i had to research it a bit. 


apparently, inverted trees do have a long history. In the 12th century, Central Europeans would hang candle-laden trees from the ceiling to represent the Holy Trinity. 


during the 21st century, this has become a retailer's trick to gain more floor space for products...


 but...


it appears as though upside-down christmas trees are catching on for home use. see article here


what are your thoughts? would you ever do this??

  1. My family has had trees that have ended up sideways (on the floor), but never upside down.
