We're totally hung up on this new alternative Christmas tree trend

It's a Christmas tree, but not as we know it...

If your home is short on space during the festive season, then a hanging Christmas tree could be just the way to go.

This quirky alternative Christmas tree can be hung on any wall. All you need is a hook – you could even replace an existing picture frame or piece of artwork to save making more holes in walls.

Low-cost Christmas: This week Lidl are branching out by selling REAL Christmas trees – from just £16.99!

As well as looking super stylish on your wall, they can be strung out each year as an alternative to a traditional artificial Christmas tree.

And the good news is there's still plenty of room to pop on your range of Christmas tree decorations – from metallic baubles all the way through to a few flourishes of glittery tinsel.
