What do you put your Christmas tree on?

[MumblingClothDoll]

I used a coffee table last year for out 5 foot tree...I never get a tree which is big enough for putting right on the floor...but this year I really fancy buying a small, live tree...a nice fat bushy oneof abobut three feet tall and having it on a taller table...or stand. I just wondered what other people do? And do you have any tips for what looks good?

the floor! i have a 7ft tree. i am getting a live tree this year, but still a whopper

Our sitting room just isn't big enough to take a 7 footer and I think it's really too small for a 5 foot one even...whicch is why I though a three footer might be more proportinal...

A 3ft one on a small table or crate overturned looks fine. Cover it with some fabric

A very very large cardboard box covered in plain (but shiny) red wrapping paper. Thought about using a small table but were afraid the dcs would crawl underneath - and then stand up. Box looks ok, esp when surrounded by presents.

My next door neighbour used to put hers in a box planter like <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=cn1.kaboodle.com/hi/img/2/0/0/137/3/AAAAAsL32QYAAAAAATc_Nw.jpg%3Fv%3D1219412382000&imgrefurl=www.kaboodle.com/reviews/barcelona-white-vinyl-planter-box&usg=__FeHTKcZRE4ILm0BJYnUweMBhjdM=&h=300&w=300&sz=25&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=o2CdEmHWT9URcM:&tbnh=138&tbnw=144&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dwhite%2Bbox%2Bplanter%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1362%26bih%3D583%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=330&vpy=226&dur=4134&hovh=225&hovw=225&tx=134&ty=128&ei=bfPWTLW5LoP84AbMqZGCCA&oei=bfPWTLW5LoP84AbMqZGCCA&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=20&ved=1t:429,r:8,s:0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this.
