Embrace sustainability this festive season and try out one of these eco-friendly Christmas tree alternatives.
If there is anything that symbolises that it is officially Christmastime, it’s a Christmas tree. While some of us excitedly purchase a new one each year or venture into our attics to rustle out our trusty faux faves, the unearthing of a Christmas tree and decorating it is an undoubtedly favourite pastime for many of us.
But what if you want to go for a more sustainable approach this year? Well, there are some alternative (and, admittedly, rather unorthodox) options that are an eco-friendly and fun way to approach this annual festive tradition.
From colourful balloons to white birch Christmas trees, there are some brilliant alternative options out there – and we’ve listed a few of them for you to consider this Christmas.
