Hi Stephanie! SO glad to see you back!! Hope you and your family are doing well :) I have watched all of your holiday videos and have taken so much good advice from them☺️ I actually bought your exact Home Depot Xmas tree from years ago and I love it 😍 One question I have though...is there any reason you prefer the KOC trees over Balsam Hill?

@stephanielynnhome 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! I don’t know if I prefer KOC over Balsam Hill, because I haven’t had a Balsam Hill tree until this year. I have another review video for that tree coming out in a few days! I picked my favorite green tree from KOC but I can’t say it’s my favorite green tree over all the other brands just yet. However, it is a fabulous tree! I know for sure that both brands carry high end Christmas trees and I will probably love both of them, just like I love both my flocked Christmas trees. 🥰 I hope that helps, and thanks again! ❤️🎄

@cwess664 3 жыл бұрын

@@stephanielynnhome Ahhh...Ok! Well I do agree that your KOC green tree is most definitely beautiful! I’m with you on the flocked tree thing...there’s a certain elegance to those that can’t be matched. Very much looking forward to your BH tree video! Thanks so much, and take care❤️

I’m a first time buyer of an artificial tree; I don’t know exactly the correct way of fluffing a tree. Can you do a guide on how to fluff an artificial tree?

@stephanielynnhome 3 жыл бұрын

This is a great video suggestion and I will have to do that video! Until then, I would suggest you fluff one section at a time before you put the next section on. The other thing that helps is if you look at the picture on the website of how the tree is supposed to look. Some branches curve down and other up.

We ordered this exact tree from this video and the tree is extremely wobbly. Not sturdy at all for the extreme cost of this tree. We took it down and tried putting it back together with no resolution in the sturdiness. It is so unsturdy that we fear even putting ornaments on it.

What’s wrong with how someone is deciding to spend their money? There are hundreds of videos showing how to buy and decorate inexpensive trees. Perhaps maybe watch those instead of wasting your time on things that don’t apply to you.
