Size

Tree toppers come in a variety of sizes, and it’s important to choose one that’s going to look appropriate on your Christmas tree. For instance, smaller toppers can look awkward on bigger trees, and bigger toppers can make already small trees look tinier. Pictures can be deceiving, so be sure to look at dimensions or measurements as you make your decision.

Ease of Use

Tree toppers with good bases shouldn’t give you much trouble, but in certain cases, you’ll need to anchor, or secure, the topper to the Christmas tree. When you’re looking to get a tree topper, pay attention to the base and peruse reader reviews about their installation experience. Different types of bases included clip-on, coil, or attach via a plastic cone.
