I'm still rocking my Christmas decorations, and I'm glad I can share my experience with you, especially since there are discounts on New Year's decorations after December 31st.
When it comes to decorating the depth of the tree, near the trunk, I always look for something that fills the space. This year, I picked up two tiny sets, including the 'Fairy Tale Forest' set from Pyaterochka, which did the trick.
I get it, it's a Christmas tree, and it's New Year's, but calling it a forest was a bit of a stretch. These ornaments are more like expensive chocolate candies to me - they're a rosy-chocolate color.
The set comes with 20 different and uniquely beautiful ornaments in mocha, pale pink, and milk chocolate colors.
The manufacturer listed the approximate sizes on the packaging (I'm assuming height), ranging from small to the largest:
3 CM, 4.5, 5.5 CM
The 5.5 cm one is probably the pinecone, as it's the tallest of the bunch.
The ornaments came in a cardboard box, each one nestled in its own plastic compartment (all on a single plastic base).
At the time of purchase, it was impossible to inspect the ornaments for any damage, so I had to rely on luck - I hoped there were no scratches.
I bought the ornaments when they first came out, so I paid a premium price - 400 rubles per set. By the end of December, the price had dropped in half, unfortunately. But by then, I'd already decorated the tree, so I won't dwell on it.
Now, let's take a closer look at the ornaments in their color palette and sizes.
First up, we have the pinecones.
Pinecones from the set in three colorsThere were six pinecones in the set, in three colors.
They're all small, very delicate, and have a pleasing tactile feel. Yes, you can tell it's a pinecone - the shape and scaly texture are spot on. The colors are mocha, chocolate, and a lovely pale pink - not too loud.
I have to say, the colors aren't super uniform - I'm not sure if it's because they're made in China or because they're just really small.
It's pretty clear that these toys aren't blow-molded all in one piece, but rather made up of two parts - the picture with the chocolate truffle really shows the seam.

The hearts are adorable, and I really love how plump they are - they look like they're made of candy! They also don't have any noticeable flaws, like scratches. They really catch the light nicely.
And of course, the classic little balls, also in three colors.
There were also these adorable star-shaped decorations with smooth corners.
The set also came with these golden threads for making your own hangers. The metallic thread is super hard to tie into a knot and keep it from coming undone - we had to put some effort into it, but we managed.

When I hung them up on the tree, both at the base and in between the larger decorations, they looked really charming in the twinkling lights - the glass surface catches the sparkles and reflects them back.
This ornament set really made our Christmas tree stand out, adding a touch of glamour with its shiny, reflective garland of little mice.
Our Christmas tree just gets more and more beautiful every year...and it's starting to get a bit cramped, so I think it's time to get a second one to fit everything in!
Merry Christmas, everyone!
