Choosing a Christmas tree at a local farm is definitely a unique holiday tradition. Taking home just one wonderfully decorated tree might be difficult, so if you find yourself wanting to decorate two or three more, you are not alone. Why not let the holiday cheer of “O Christmas Tree” fill your entire home? Fill your home and yard with miniature Christmas trees and sprigs of holly this holiday season.

When decorating with little Christmas trees, there are no hard and fast rules. You might line your mantel or kitchen counter with miniature trees. For that added touch of holiday cheer, you may even set up trees in your bedroom; just make sure to turn them off before turning in. Plus, due to their manageable size, tiny trees are perfect for kid-friendly DIY projects and cute displays. (If you don’t want the hassle of caring for real trees, artificial ones will do just well.) Whether you’re low on square footage or just want to try something different this year, we’ve rounded together the best DIY and store-bought options for small Christmas trees.

Tiny, Authentic Christmas Tree

Decorated with a plaid ribbon, cranberry garland, and tartan ornaments, as well as homey touches like clip-on candelabra, this miniature balsam fir honors holiday traditions. Traditionally, this is done in a stoneware crock.

Tree Made From Recycled Wood Pallets

Decorate the slats of a shipping crate (cheap options can be found on eBay or at a craft store) with a tree stencil and a variety of pom-poms in different sizes and colors. Put a gold one on top to make it look like a star. Test it out on your front porch for a cheery introduction.

Decorative Christmas Trees Made From Bottle Brushes

Greenery, twinkling lights, and bottle-brush trees of varying sizes surround an assortment of modern and vintage Christmas decorations (including extremely collectible Putz homes) in this table centerpiece.

Thinly-Pruned Topiary Trees

The Country Living Farmhouse Kitchen is complete with these rosemary topiaries. The little trees, decorated with a single red bow, are lovely, aromatic, and practical; you can easily harvest fresh herbs whenever you like.

Tree of Holiday Lights Made From Mason Jars

This would look great on a mantel or perhaps some open kitchen shelves. Put holiday trimmings such as ornaments, tinsel, and foliage in six canning jars. Create a pyramid with the jars, cover it in glittering garland, and crown it with a star.

Modest Natural Tree for Christmas Decorations

An alpine balsam tree in a little pot conveys the philosophy that less is more, while an old copper pot adds some gravitas to the arrangement. Dried orange garland, a bird garland, pine cone ornaments, and other natural elements add a touch of warmth.

Decorated Christmas Trees Made of Twine

Use the traditional red and white baker’s thread to bind together foam tree shapes. As a final touch, a star-shaped cookie cutter can be hot-glued to the top.

Christmas Trees Decorated With Flower Frogs

Add a touch of festive horticulture to your display by piling these floral accents. Decorate the tree with ornaments and plants.
