Balsam Hill Christmas trees arrive in sections of branches, each compressed for easy shipping. Gathering family and friends to shape your tree can be a delightful event, making it appear lush and full in your space. Shaping a typical 7.5-ft tree may take a couple of hours the first time, but the results are well worth the care and effort.The following video demonstrates the proper way to shape most upswept trees, but you can select the Christmas tree type that applies to you for a better understanding and improved results.

Shaping Your Tree

Shape the tree section by section, starting at the bottom. So, if your tree comes in 3 sections, shape the lowest section before putting the second section on top. You might also consider tying up the higher levels of branches in the sections to keep them out of your way. You can use the ribbon that came on your tree.

Step 1 

Working branch by branch, separate individual branch tips and pull them away from the centre of the tree.

Step 2

Separate and spread outward-facing branch tips. Your branches should resemble a peacock’s fanned tail.

Step 3

Gently bend the branch tips upward to create the lush fullness of a real tree. Repeat separating and shaping to fill in gaps.

Balsam Hill™ is proud to unveil the latest in Christmas tree design: our state-of-the-art Flip Tree™ technology. This unique patented design is protected by two issued US Patents (#8,062,718 and #8,993,077) and is exclusive to Balsam Hill. With this innovation, we have eliminated the need to lift heavy sections of the artificial Christmas tree during assembly and storage. Homeowners can simply roll in the tree out of the box on its wheeled base, lock it securely into place, flip the bottom section up, and install the lightweight tree top. Flip Trees up to 7.5’ generally come in just two sections, so only the tree top needs to be lifted. Larger Flip Trees may have two top sections. In just a few easy steps, you can assemble a grand holiday display.Flip Tree Setup Video: Watch how easy it is to assemble your new Balsam Hill Flip Tree.

Balsam Hill™ prides itself on the quality of its products, and wants you to enjoy your tree for many years to come. The online <a href="/inspiration/artificial-christmas-tree-assembly-instructions" target="_self">Assembly, Use, &amp; Care Instructions Guide</a> shows you how easy it is to set up and maintain your Balsam Hill Christmas tree.

StandardSetup

The innovative design of this Instant Evergreen Tree makes setup easy and fast. Featuring unique memory wire branches that automatically fan out into place as you set up your tree, our Instant Evergreen trees are ready in minutes. This tree also features our Easy Plug® technology, which means the light strings automatically connect through the trunk of the tree during setup - the only light string you need to touch for a beautifully lit tree is the one you plug into the wall. This truly instant tree will save you valuable time and effort compared to setting up and fluffing a traditional artificial tree.

Pre-fluffed

Shape the tree section by section, starting at the bottom. So, if your tree comes in 3 sections, shape the lowest section before putting the second section on top. You might also consider tying up the higher levels of branches in the sections to keep them out of your way. You can use the ribbon that came on your tree. <a href="https://www.balsamhill.com/inspiration/shaping-your-artificial-christmas-tree-instructions">Learn more</a>Tip: Save that ribbon for wrapping up your tree after the season

Trees

The first time you assemble and shape your tree will require the most shaping to give the tree its full lush appearance. <a href="{0}" target="_self">Learn More</a>

Wreaths

Remove the top section of the tree before flipping the tree base. After placing each section of the tree in the provided storage bags, roll your Flip Tree into storage with the utmost ease.

The less you compress your tree at the end of the season, the less work you will have when setting up next year.
