Miniature Christmas Trees

Speaking of little Christmas trees, one way to liven up the whole house during the Christmas season is to have a little tree in each of the main rooms of your house. You can find little artificial trees in several sizes (look for a deal at the after-Christmas sale). In addition to your large tree in the family room, try a tiny tree on the dining room table, the kitchen table or on top or the television; set one on your dresser or bathroom counter.

You can decorate these little trees with miniature Christmas ornaments; you can usually purchase minatures where where you buy small trees, or you can make your own decorations. Tiny popcorn strands are really cute, or you create a theme for each tree. The little tree in your sports lover’s room could be decorated with tiny baseballs and football helmets (specialty Christmas stores often have these ornaments and party stores carry favors and other small items that you can use or check on eBay for tiny toys you could make into ornaments).

Make little snowman ornaments out of cotton balls, or cut tiny snowflakes out of white paper. Bring a little summer into the season by converting seashells into ornaments (just poke a little hole in the shell for the hook to go through). Want visions of sugarplums? Decorate the

I love little trees, I have four of them, that get put into different rooms. I never thought of putting one in the bathroom - but I will now. Thanks

I went looking for some last year, but wasn't able to find what I wanted. I'm going to look again this year though! I'm even planning on having one in the bathroom! :flake:

Just brilliant Noel!
I never, ever thought of a tiny tree in the bathroom. I have enough counter space in the main bath. I will definitely find a small one for there. Yay! Great idea! Thanks!

What a wonderful idea! I will definately be on the look out for a couple when the christmas stuff starts to arrive in the shops. One for the hallway and one for the bathroom. Now my mind is working, thinking of themes to decorate them.

Sometimes they have tiny trees at the Dollar Tree, so it doesn't have to get expensive either!
