Lighted Birch Trees – 5 Ways to Use Them & Save Money

Do you want a way to add ambiance and make your home more festive using tree branches? These lighted birch trees have a natural, rustic look, plus they can make a room feel cozy with their warm illumination.

Why Birch Trees with Lights Make Great Home Decor:

Their multi-functional design enables you to use them in a variety of different ways. In addition, you can mold and shape the bendable wire branches however you like.

Furthermore, the slender trunk allows you to easily fit the birch tree behind a sofa or next to your bed. Overall, I think it’s more versatile than other artificial trees and therefore easier to decorate with.

Think about it. They fit well with all sorts of home decor styles: contemporary, rustic, modern farmhouse, shabby chic, country, etc..

Not to mention, they make festive holiday trees that you can then use year round, year after year. Plus, many people also use birch branches for weddings, parties and other holidays throughout the year.

Note: Although this pre-lit birch tree is lightweight and easy to set up, the branches are surprisingly sturdy. So, you can hang lots of ornaments on them for the holidays if you want.

This Pre-Lit Birch Tree Can Actually Save You Money:

The branches come with built-in LED bulbs, so you don’t have to buy string lights. Plus, the tree comes with an extra long cord which gives you a lot more options as far as where you can set up your tree.

And with almost 100 warm white bulbs, this tree gives off a nice amount of light that is both relaxing and decorative. However, the LED bulbs save you money because they’re energy efficient and have a long lifespan.

Therefore, you don’t have to feel guilty about turning on your tree during the daytime. It will only cost a few pennies per hour to run.

How to Set Up Your LED Birch Tree:

The birch tree comes with a base that it screws into so that it remains upright. Therefore, you can set up your freestanding tree virtually anywhere in your home.

On the other hand, if you want to put the birch tree outdoors, you’ll probably want to secure it to the ground. The tree only weighs a couple of pounds and could easily get blown around in the wind.

Fortunately, the base contains holes at each of the 4 corners. Therefore, you can stake it securely to the ground or even screw it down to a deck plank.

You can also create a small birch forest, like Restoration Hardware has done here. You can get trees at a discount when you buy them in multiples.

Then, create small burlap sacks from fabric you buy at your local fabric store or online.
