Decorate your Christmas tree with tips here
Not sure how to care for a real tree? Not sure why we traditionally put up a fir tree each year for Christmas? Find the help about these and other Christmas tree traditions here.
Christmas Tree Care Tips:
To ensure your real tree stays fresh and green for the length of Christmas make sure you cut the end off the trunk when you get home. If possible, keep your tree trunk in a bucket of water. Decorate the bucket with a festive piece of fabric, or Christmas paper. An easy idea is to use a red bucket, or what ever colour fits with your theme.
Unique Christmas Tree Decorating Ideas
If you’re stuck for space or don’t want to bother with a tree (real or fake) some fun alternatives are :
- Lights against the wall in the shape of a tree with presents sitting below the lights.
- Place some decorations on a potted plant already in the house.
- Buy a plant and decorate it, after Christmas plant the tree and watch it grow. This is a good idea for children. They can trace their Christmas’s back by the trees.
