Wes’ 2008 Alt. Xmas Tree Pick

The tree on the right is by Phoebe Washburn and it will not shed.

No more watering a dead tree and no more vacuuming up pine needles well into April. Finally, a truly green Christmas tree: reduce, reuse, recycle. Celebrated artists Fred Tomaselli, Phoebe Washburn, Marilyn Minter and Markus Linnenbrink have each created a die-cut vinyl wall-sticker Christmas tree. (Is vinyl green?) These life-size trees can be applied directly to the wall by either removing the paper backing or simply pinning it.

Each limited edition tree sells for $100 and is shipped in a tube that can be reused for easy storage. The choice is yours.
