Oh! I didn't realize you were talking about a christmas tree. I was trying to figure out what correlation the two had before I realized lol.
It's either stars or nothing, for the most part. I have celebrated christmas in years tbh.

Angel. Stars look weird to me. Though I kind of also like the look of a tree without a topper at all.

proposal for all current angel tree toppers to be swapped out with biblically accurate ones.

I know like 2 different people who put the death star on top of their tree because "haha it has 'star' in the name" which is also nerdy, and my mom straight up put a model uss enterprise as a tree topper sometimes so.
My grandparents were typically angel people.
If i were to have a tree I think I'd probably opt for an angel too. it just *feels* right to me i guess.

Growing up we had angels, but as soon as I got my own tree I got a star. It's super cheap looking, but I love it. Also I want a new tree now that I finally own a house (my current tree is fiber optic, which is cool, but clearly sized for an apartment). This is the one I want (watch the video, it's cool): ooooh the pretty colors

I'd prefer a star but haven't had one for my tree since I was itty bitty ;u;
For at least the past decade, I've had a green sombrero ornament which I put on top instead XD

my aunt made my parents a star made out of (previously lit) matches when they first got married, and they've been using it ever since. i like it.

We usually don't put anything on top of our big Christmas tree, but I put a toy spider on top of my mini one (which also has spider ornaments).

proposal for all current angel tree toppers to be swapped out with biblically accurate ones. Mocat approves, I definitely want a rotating set of rings with eyes and teeth hovering on the top of my tree.

I've always had a star. Angels just look... wrong to me.

I always went to my grandparents' house as a kid, so I still use the angel they had when I was younger. I'm not religious at all, but it brings up a lot of nostalgia and Christmasy vibes, I guess. That said, I do put a little light-up TARDIS near the top.

proposal for all current angel tree toppers to be swapped out with biblically accurate ones. not 2 ruin the fun but the humanoid w/ wing version of an angel is biblically accurate, angels take many forms in scripture varying from human-like to flaming eye wheels and thousand-wing beasts that being said if you prefer the flaming eye wheel for your aesthetic, by all means

but like...... were they really like blonde and blue eyed with floofy white bird wings and visible halos? it's possible. but there's room even for more variations than the marketed ones right now.

I mean Lucifer was mentioned as being the most beautiful and other mentioned angels were described as so beautiful to people they were ready to jump them in Sodom so I'm sure some were.

This thread is making me realize that I don't know what we put up on the top of the tree. I just know it's not an angel.

I always tried to put an angel on the top of the little plastic tree every year, but the top is unstable and, well, plastic, and the angel is made of SOMETHING hard, so it will definitely fall down, break, and/or make a loud noise.
