My restored Christmas tree

Long story, a good friend and kind person borrowed this from me. They wanted to make a 'copy' of it. After a couple years I asked about it again and when I got it back, it was all painted white with white lights and many of the pieces of jewelry I had put on were gone ( many were my mom's pieces ) I was heartbroken so I remade it this year and restored it. I really don't understand what they were thinking. Nothing was wrong with it, I loved it. I don't know why they felt they had to change it ? They were so proud of it and I was devastated with how it looked. Mom and I were both delighted that it's back to

it's original holiday look !
