These icicles are beautiful! (Brujaha, San Diego, Ca., 2008-02-14)

I ordered two sets, and now wish I'd ordered more. They are sized from extravagantly long to minicicle. The flow and freeze of real icicles was captured perfectly by these artisans. They look as though they were snapped off the eaves of a little cabin in a snowy forest. My holiday guests said they'd never seen anything like them. I had noticed that a previous reviewer did not love the copper wire lengths that were intended to be used as do-it-yourself hangers. I put the wires in the crafts drawer and used shiny silver premade hooks. I would give their appearance 6 stars!

Lovely Handcrafted Recycled Glass Icicle Ornaments (cstarch, Middletown, 2008-02-01)

I purchased the 20 pack of Handcrafted Recycled Glass Icicle Ornaments not knowing if they would arrive in time to put them on the tree. Well they did and they were stunning!! The copper wire was a tad difficult to work with, and they only gave me 20 pieces, so that was a bit of a problem. However, they were so lifelike on the tree and shimmering in the lights they were well worth the purchase. Oddly enough though, the box they came in did smell a little musty, but not enough to detract from the beauty of the icicles!

Icicles look real (LRalph, , 2008-01-08)

I am an icicle freak, I have to admit - my tree is covered with glass icicles of all types. These I have hanging in my windows with fishline, and they look like real ones. On a tree the longer ones would have to be carefully placed to hang free, but I am actually considering getting 4-5 sets to do that. I said I was a freak. They arrived unbroken, quick shipping, and the box is sturdy for storing. They come with copper wire strands to thread and hang them, but I would and did forget that - fishline is better.

Icicles that look so real and they don't melt! (3110PENNSYLVANIA, Wayne, PA, 2008-01-17)

They arrived just in time to be the final touch for my 12 foot Christmas tree ... so life like you would take bets that they were real. A little pricey but well worth it after seeing them catch the light from the white lights of my beautifully decorated Christmas tree. I didn't want to put them away for next year ... I supppose you could use them for something else if you have an indoor mini-tree or fancy plant. They also arrrive in a nice sturdy box and very well packaged.

Excellent Gift or Present for Yourself (Kapukoa, Philly, PA, 2008-01-08)

The icycles came fully intact in a really nice box. The box is so nice you could put some ribbon around it and it is a perfect gift. For the price you get a lot of icycles that really make a decorating impact. They do come with copper wire to string them up with. It is a little bit of a pain to untangle the wire and string it through but the end result is great. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a nice decoration for the winter or a really elegant gift to give.
