         2 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the external covering comprises a plurality of sectioned panels that are interconnected. 
     
     
         3 . The decorative tent system of  claim 2 , wherein each of the sectioned panels comprises at least one tree-like structure. 
     
     
         4 . The decorative tent system of  claim 3 , wherein the sectioned panels couple to each other at an edge of each of the sectioned panels. 
     
     
         5 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the tent structure forms a conical shape. 
     
     
         6 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the lighting system is located at a top of the internal space. 
     
     
         7 . The decorative tent system of  claim 5 , wherein the lighting system is coupled to the frame of the tent structure. 
     
     
         8 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the lighting system comprises at least one light. 
     
     
         9 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the lighting system comprises at least one light emitting element and at least one reflective surface. 
     
     
         10 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the external covering couples to the tent structure. 
     
     
         11 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the external covering rests on the tent structure without coupling to the tent structure. 
     
     
         12 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the external covering comprises a plurality of sectioned panels that are interconnected and each of the sectioned panels includes a scaffolding and at least one tree-like structure. 
     
     
         13 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the tent structure forms a pyramidal shape, wherein the pyramidal shape includes between and including three and sixteen sides. 
     
     
         14 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the tree-like structure comprises a fascicle of needles. 
     
     
         15 . The decorative tent system of  claim 1 , wherein the external covering comprises a plurality of sectioned panels that are interconnected and each of the sectioned panels includes a scaffolding and at least one tree-like structure, and wherein the tree-like structure comprises a fascicle of needles. 
     
     
         16 . A decorative tree tent apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
 a tent structure comprising a frame and a flexible tent, wherein the tent structure covers an internal space and comprises at least one opening; and   an external covering external to the tent structure wherein the covering comprises a plurality of tree-like structures and wherein the external covering covers a majority of an external surface of the flexible tent and wherein each tree-like structure comprises a fascicle of needles;   wherein the external covering comprises a plurality of sectioned panels that are interconnected.   
     
     
         17 . The decorative tree tent apparatus of  claim 16 , wherein each of the sectioned panels comprises at least one tree-like structure and wherein the sectioned panels couple to each other at an edge of each of the sectioned panels. 
     
     
         18 . The decorative tree tent apparatus of  claim 17 , wherein the apparatus further comprises a lighting system coupled to the tent structure and internal to the flexible tent. 
     
     
         19 . The decorative tree tent apparatus of  claim 18 , wherein the lighting system is coupled to the frame of the tent structure. 
     
     
         20 . The decorative tree tent apparatus of  claim 19 , wherein the lighting system comprises at least one light emitting element and at least one reflective surface.
