> Tonight I decided to put our artificial tree up, after years of not having a tree. I slowly brought the sections of the tree upstairs from the basement, only to discover I couldn't find the base for the tree. So now unless I find the base there will be no tree. :-(
>Look at the bottom of the tree. You may be able to put it into a stand designed for a real tree. There should be different styles of stands for sale all over the place now. Or you could try local thrift shops. You might find the bottom of someone elses artificial tree there (I've seen them). If the stand doesn't seem stable enough you can sometimes run support ropes to a large piece of furniture or a hook in the wall.
