can be tacky, but not usually

I am going to be awkward.
Pink feather trees- tacky
Nice big realistic looking greens ones- NOT tacky!

See? Told you I was awkward.

tacky in a nostalgic way and eco friendly!
We've had ours for over 10 years - it looks crap now but the kids love it and won't have anything else.

Well at risk of offending nice people with perfectly nice fake trees, I would not want one in my house.

Unless it was an old tinsel one with wire branches. They rock!!

basically pretending to be real = tacky, and obviously flagrantly fake = acceptable

Columbia · 24/11/2007 15:03

...except in Personal clown's link, which is appalling

SheepishPeachesMcLean · 24/11/2007 15:08

Fake green but realistic - not tacky just boring.

Intentionally tacky - well, yes, just that. And surely it's like a joke being repeated everyday for the whole period... Novelty wears off quite quick.

Real - I wouldn't have anything else.

Green - noy tacky but not ever as good as the real thing. Ant other colour,tacky and highly not amusing,cool,trendy or different.
