Skye McAlpine’s Ultra Realistic Christmas Tree is Bringing My Nostalgic Visions to Life – Minus the Needle Drop and String Light Tangle

Skye McAlpine at her Christmas table with a Christmas tree beside.

It's hard to believe, but our artificial Christmas tree lasted my entire childhood. It came to feel like a family heirloom, and unearthing it from the attic each December was my favorite festive ritual. Now, I'm looking for a tree to display in my very own apartment. I can't stop thinking about Skye McAlpine's magnificent tree, which twinkles in the backdrop of our exclusive How I Host with Skye McAlpine episode, where the chef shares her favorite holiday recipes and table styling ideas.

We've tracked down the exact one, and it's the Sanibel Spruce artificial tree from Balsam Hill. Lush, tall, and pre-lit, it's the kind of tree that you might expect to see in a nostalgic holiday movie, and I'm desperate to invest in one of my own. I can't think of a better way to bring all my Christmas tree ideas to life.
