So you want to liven up your Christmas display this year and spark that old Christmas spirit. How about buying a unique Christmas tree instead of putting up the same old green one with the same tired ornaments? There are dozens of different and very unique trees in online shops or trees you can actually make yourself, and if you do a little browsing you can see how far Christmas trees have come in the last few decades. Can you remember when the world went crazy over the silver trees that were lit with color wheels because they were too flammable to put lights on just because they were so different? Now you can buy trees in a variety of different colors and even choose an upside down Christmas trees if you truly want to make a statement.
Your grandmother would probably turn over in her grave if she could see you erect an artificial purple or pink tree in your living room. In her generation, even the idea of an artificial tree, no matter what color, was almost unthinkable. No one wanted anything but a fresh tree which they purchased fresh each year and which would fill the house with that Christmas-y pine scent. The idea of putting up a fake black or white tree would have been unthinkable and probably considered a work of the devil. Not so any longer!
Besides being available in unique colors, such as blue, orange, or gold, unique Christmas trees come in truly innovative shapes and sizes to fit certain themes. The following list will provide you with an idea of what some of the trees that are being sold this Christmas season are like:
1.The pre-lit upside down Christmas tree which can either be hung from your ceiling, mounted on a wall, or placed upside down on a stand.
2.The Whoville table-top Christmas tree.
3.A copy of the sad little tree from “A Charlie Brown Christmas”.
4.The world’s most expensive Christmas tree festooned with 913 karats of diamonds and 3,762 crystal beads and selling for more than $1,000,000.
Maybe you’re like some people and would like to use your imagination to construct your own Christmas tree. Lots of people have come up with unique ways to design a Christmas tree for their homes. Some examples of homemade trees include a knitted tree, a tree made of 400 hundred empty Mountain Dew cans, a tree constructed only of beer bottles, and a monstrous 7-story Christmas tree built using 350 regular-sized trees. As you can see, unique Christmas trees are becoming the norm in a lot of homes this year. Maybe you’d like to consider one for your own home.
