This Holiday Tree is placed at The Royal Poinciana Plaza, which is on an island near Pompano beach, known for its trendiest upscale shopping destinations and home to beloved luxury retailers.
The tree is decorated with surfboards which are perpetual features, with round black eyeglasses and multiple strands of large turquoise beads. On each surfboard, there is a presentation of pictures and writings which make them clearly remarkable. This masterpiece is a colorful repertoire and is designed by Iris Apfel.
