You could just go for a traditional Christmas tree this year. But if you're too creative, too cheap, too lazy, or too close to the equator for a real tree, there are plenty of creative DIY Christmas trees that will save you money and time or give you a unique way to go about your festive home decor.

From seemingly floating Christmas decorations to reusing old books and even incorporating some funny puns, the DIY projects here are endless. On the other hand, why cut a perfectly good tree and then throw it away after all the festivities, when you can make your own. No harm done and bonus points for creativity!
