Abstract: A Surround (11) designed to (a) encircle, enclose, obscure, shroud or cloak the base of upright objects like Christmas trees, support columns, and potted plants (FIG. 2) or (b) attach to and encircle a portion of objects like lamp posts, sign posts, and support columns (FIG. 4). The Surround can be comprised of any number of vertical sides with panels (12) connected together with flaps (13) on the top that reduce the size of the top opening. Addition flaps (34) on the bottom of the panels would reduce the size of the bottom opening and facilitate positioning the Surround (32) above ground. The surfaces of Surround panels (33) and flaps are adorned with decoration or information, or left plain for user decoration or information. The Surround includes hinged, bending, or folding connections along with assembly connectors. The Surround is installed by forming and connecting it around an upright object.
