Not everyone has the space for a 7ft tall Scots pine or Douglas fir. Other people want to showcase their creativity in their Christmas tree design. Here are some ideas that might inspire you to come up with your own interpretation of the traditional Christmas tree.

#1 Book Tree

Do you have lots of old books at home? If yes, why not transform them into a booktree? It is easy to assemble and when January comes, the ‘branches’ can be put back on the shelf again for next year.

#2 Beer Tree
