March 2, 2008: Tree jewelry

I'll admit to buying jewelry, to get a little bush for my wood, but this is crazy. You'd probably need 24 hour security, too.

Wonder if they know that will eventually kill the tree.

They appear to be pretty loose, but eventually they would be covered over.

'Shopped. And, I think I'll pass. My old oak tree will have to be happy with a yellow ribbon. :headshake

the pics don't seem 'shopped to me--the reflections look right. Or do they?

Wouldn't it take an awfully long time for there to be adverse consequences to the tree? Seems like people would remove the "jewelry" before then.

I prefer the tree sweater:

The next time someone mentions that I spend too much time in the Cellar, I'll direct them to the Chicago and Seatle areas, where folks put jewelry and sweaters on their trees. My life seems much more productive now. Thanks, tree huggers.

Bling for a birch - what won't they think of next? :right:

I think I'll give my favorite tree a pearl necklace!

I pity the fool that mess with Mr. Tree!

:lol:

Welcome to the Cellar, deek & Buckrogers47. :D

Hell, i gave my birch a pearl necklace this morning!:jig:

Stupidest thing ever, and I am so jealous that I didn't come up with the idea!

for you guys: isn't there a tree fetishist board somewhere you can go to? (squick)
