Pencil Slim Artificial Christmas Trees

Choosing the right artificial Christmas tree size depends on your ceiling height and available floor space.

• Standard ceilings (8 ft): 6.5 ft to 7.5 ft Christmas trees
• Higher ceilings (9 ft and above): 9 ft to 16 ft Christmas trees
• Small spaces / apartments: Pencil or slim Christmas trees

Make sure to leave 6–12 inches for your tree topper.

Our artificial trees are designed to look highly lifelike, with attention to detail in shape, color, and texture.

We have two main types of branch tip material.

• Feel Real® technology:
  Crafted to mimic natural tree branches
  Offers the most realistic shape, fullness, and true-to-life color
• PVC tips:
  Provide a full, classic look
  Durable and cost-effective option

Why customers love Feel Real® PE Christmas trees:
Many customers prefer Feel Real® PE trees for their incredibly natural appearance—closely resembling real evergreen branches.

These categories refer to the type of branch tips and overall appearance of the tree:

• Most Realistic:
  Made with premium Feel Real® PE branch tips
  Mimics natural evergreen branches in shape, texture, and color
  Offers the most lifelike appearance
• Realistic:
  Blend of PE (Feel Real®) and PVC tips
  Balanced look with good realism and fullness
  Great mix of natural appearance and value
• Traditional:
  Made with classic PVC needles
  Full, uniform shape with a classic holiday look
  More budget-friendly option

Pro tip:
If realism matters most, look for higher PE tip count—this gives the tree a more natural, dimensional look.

We have a variety of lighting options on our professionally strung artificial Christmas trees:

Shaping (or fluffing) an artificial Christmas tree helps create a full, natural look.
Spend 20 to 30 minutes on shaping and fluffing the Christmas tree for best results.

• Work section by section and branch by branch, gently spreading each and every individual branch tip to fill any visible gaps.
• Continue shaping as you attach each section, making sure the branches are evenly fluffed throughout.
• Once the tree is completely assembled, step back and give it a final once-over, adjusting any areas that appear sparse.

When every branch and tip has been properly fluffed, Christmas tree will have minimal to no gaps, resulting in a beautifully full and seamless appearance.
