Ok, so I’m sure you have given some thought as to what you going to be doing over Christmas, whether it be spending time with loved ones, jetting off to an exotic destination, or simply spending time at home relishing the few days of peace and quiet.

Now for me the one thing that says Christmas more than anything else, is a Christmas tree. I’m am a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to decorating my house over December, if I could just have the snow and eggnog, my life would be complete. But for some, the idea of flashing lights and sparkling decorations can have them cowering in a corner, sporting a glazed look and an ever so slight twitch down their right side. Not a good end-of-year look.

So as a compromise, I have come up with some alternative Christmas tree ideas, so that there is no excuse this year, you can still have the spirit without the glitz. It only happens once a year, so make the most of it.
