CHRISTMAS TREES
1
L ack of space in Hong Kong is always a hot topic and when the holidays approach we often have to think of creative ways to decorate . Christmas is especially challenging so we ’ ve come up with some novel ways to use the wall space in your home and still capture the essence of a magical Christmas . 1 . Wall decals are a great way to spruce up your space and there are many wonderful Christmas decals out there . We especially love this personalised one from Notonthehighstreet . com
2 . How about getting creative with some tinsel and fairy lights to create a tree on your wall . Ikea has all the props you will need to build a tree from scratch and best of all you can use it again the following year with some different lights or props . 3 . This is a unique way to reuse offcuts of wood and create a dynamic centrepiece for your Christmas gatherings . Most hardware stores should be able to get you the right tools to recreate this beauty . Why not get the kids involved in helping you paint the different levels of the tree .
4 . Feeling artistic ? Why not draw a tree on your wall and use Christmas ornaments to give it some life . We love how romantic and magical this tree looks .
5 . A fireplace or mantelpiece would be lovely , so why not try to create the feel by using an empty frame and Christmas decor to create something truly unique and personal . You ’ ll have winter wonderland in a frame !
