I have lately noticed a growing holiday trend! Specifically, I have noticed that rather than have one Christmas tree decorated with keepsake ornaments, people have more than one, sometimes quite a few, with different themes or colors. A friend of mine puts up four trees in her house at Christmas and keeps them in the garage for the rest of the year, fully decorated, sealed in very large plastic bags! Another friend leaves her tree up year ’round and changes the ornaments from Easter to Fourth of July to fall to the holidays!
At the Country Store of Geneva, we have a terrific selection of twig trees. Rustic slim twig trees are dark green and brown with tiny brown twigs and are commonly referred to as ‘”German Twig Trees.” They hold ornaments securely in view as the branches are bendable. When you receive your twig tree, the branches will all be tight up against the main ‘trunk’. You can pull the branches down to a 90 degree angle for maximum width or let them lean up a bit if space is more limited in width. This allows you to display the tree a bit closer to a wall on one side. Keep them up ‘year round and decorate seasonally or a festive woodsy look!
The Country Store of Geneva offers twig trees in six sizes. The larger twig trees have three sections (bottom, middle, and top!) plus a sturdy iron base. The smaller, table-top twig trees are in one piece with a burlap base or a reproduction treenware base.

The smaller twig trees look wonderful in a children’s room. You can even light the little tree up with tiny rice lights and use it as a night-light. We also offer strings of silicone swirl and star lights. Try dressing up a few of your existing tree lights with silicone “slip-over” stars or snowflakes. These tiny silicone decorations fit over the regular strings of clear lights. The Country Store of Geneva also carries traditional tree lights with a BROWN cord rather than a green cord! They are hard to find and match the twig trees perfectly!
