Angel,Fairy or Star: WHAT'S ON TOP...


OF YOUR TREE?

It's always been a debate in work about the rights and wrongs of tree-top decoration. I've got a fairy which I thought was an angel until I looked closely and saw she had a wand! She's a bit Glinda the good fairy-ish.
My mum has a very old paper/cardboard angel that I can recall from my childhood, with a white paper, bellshaped skirt. Golden haired and very celestial.
I suppose a star would also be appropriate and seasonal,but are there any new innovations?

Re: Angel,Fairy or Star: WHAT'S ON TOP...


Up until this year we had a star, but it was a bit pantomine and brassy so this year I've got a more stylised, delicate star which is a bit flower-like . . . see here http://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/Linea...html?cgid=1102

My Mum has a glass 'finial' for the top of her tree which I have tried without success to replicate for our tree (all her decorations were bought in the 50s and have a super retro feel to them). There are loads of these finials available online in the USA but none that I've managed to find in the UK

An angel on the miniature tree on the hall table but a star on the tree in the living room. We also have a glass finial which we used to have on the tree-top when we lived in a tiny house and the tree was on a table but its diameter is too small to fit onto a 7 ft tree that we have nowadays.
