Over the years, I’ve fallen in love with the tree, made of manzanita wood or willow branches. Unlike the traditional tree, these trees have no leaves. They instead, showcase their bare branches, displaying an artistic rapture of unique curves that tell the story of their life. This free and inviting quality of the tree allows us designers to adorn them with our rich glamorous crystal strands or simple earthy orchid blooms.
These trees have the natural ability to transform a simple room into a magical forest, bringing the elements of the outdoors to a magnificent indoor display in grande style.
Not every room, however, is suited for such an undertaking. “Busy” rooms with poor lighting, ornate trimmings and treatments in the background and lots of windows tend to distract from trees.
A clean backdrop or background on the other hand, helps to present the tree as a tree and not a centerpiece. Without the visual clutter and busyness of the background, your setting is no longer a ballroom with centerpieces, but rather, that magical forest.
When it comes to trees, the bolder the better. My rule – never skimp on your branches. A thick clustering of branches help to engage the eye; almost creating a blindness to the background.
If you’re planning to use trees as centerpieces, start with the simplest possible setting and minimize any visual background distractions by selecting the right lighting and bold, bulky trees that say “I’m a tree, not a centerpiece”.---Follow these tips and you will find yourself in that magical forest
