Abstract

See full text

Apparatus and associated methods relate to a tree-top ornament apparatus configured to present a removeably attachable ornament above a top of a tree and supporting the presented ornament by clamping an ornament-connected deformable conduit to a secure portion of a tree trunk below the top of the tree. In an illustrative embodiment, the conduit may be deformable and yet semi-rigid so as not to deform under the weight of the presented ornament. In some embodiments, a sleeve may be configured to provide an electrical signal to a light emitting device for illuminating the ornament. The sleeve may include a light emitting device within a top hollow of the sleeve. In some embodiments, the light emitting device may be configured to illuminate a clear or semi-clear ornament received in the top hollow of the sleeve. The tree-top ornament apparatus may advantageously secure a tree-top ornament to the tree trunk at a location where the trunk is strong.
