Danish fly tyer, Per Hansen, tied this whimsical fly which by no coincidence, looks like a Christmas Tree. I have other examples of Per Hansen flies and have asked him to become a regular contributor, so I hope he agrees.

Per's Notes: ...I use this hook for art flies, and to day I was playing with the Xmas theme, and you have seen the result.
