    I'm googled out of it on this one.:( Is there such a thing as a rigid artificial tree, (I mean you don't have to fold down the branches) their fixed, just a case of plug n watch:D

    3ft one would do, prelit or fibre optic but with no assembly whatsoever.

    The only type of tree I could think of like that would be a pop-up tree.

    Posy is right, a pop-up is the closest you'll get - however..... Aldi have an 80cm fibre optic coming into the shops on Sunday for about €19.

    Are you based in Dublin? For the last few years I've gone to the national craft fair in the RDS & there is a stall there which sells pre-lit Ceramic Christmas trees. Pricey, but would last YEARS.... like the one in the tiniest picture known to humanity here.... :rolleyes:

    Found what I was looking for on amazon, unfortunately too big for parcel motel delivery.
    ur 3ft Scandinavian Blue Spruce tree comes with pine cones and berries. It has a dusting of frosting to give it that snow effect.
    It can be used to welcome guests at your front door, to brighten a hallway or even a landing.
    It comes in a copper effect resin pot and is made of a traditional wrapped construction.
    It's ready to go right out of the box and with the addition of a few decorations you can create a really festive feel to your home.
    Size: Height 3ft, Tree Bottom Diameter 16 inches

    Strange argos has nothing like this, Heatons have some but only 1ft tall, want 3ft

    Anyone see any 3ft ones around.

    ¡arriba, arriba! ¡andale, andale!


    Avoca had black box trees a couple of years ago, around 3 feet. Pricy though.

    Just spotted this on Homebase OP, its only 2ft, but might be suitable for you.

    Could you use Parcel Motel for delivery?

    My neighbor found a 3ft prelit tree in Woodies for €40 = it had bulbs & fibre optic & a star on top. You fold down the branches. Looks gorgeous when lit. :)
