Alternative No-Tree Christmas Trees

As much as most of us would like a 6ft Douglas Fir adorned with perfectly-matched baubles and twinkling lights, space, time and budget can’t always accommodate. But there are plenty of ways to bring a touch of festive cheer into your home, that you don’t even need a tree for. Enter the no-tree Christmas tree. Pinterest is awash with clever ways to fake the fern this year, from branches stacked in the shape of a tree and festooned with twinkly fairy lights, to the Instagram-worthy photo tree that uses cute mini Polaroid pics as decorations. Plus, you won’t be vacuuming pine needles up until twelfth night.
