- Replies 11
Christmas is a time of joy, celebration, and, of course, decorating.
But for those living in smaller spaces, finding room for a full-sized Christmas tree can be a challenge.
Introducing the half Christmas tree—a simple yet ingenious tweak that's leaving homeowners amazed and delighted.
This innovative idea was shared by a woman from New Zealand on social media.
She revealed that she's been setting up just one side of her Christmas tree's branches for the past few years.
Not only does this save her space but also eliminates the hassle of decorating the back of the tree, which often goes unnoticed.

'Just wanted to share this
we discovered a few years ago, the half tree, twice as bushy, half the space,' she said.
She posted a picture of her half tree leaning perfectly against the wall, ready to be adorned with gifts for the festive season.
The post quickly garnered attention, with a flurry of comments praising the setup as 'genius'.
'I've actually never thought about not putting my back branches on, such a clever idea. We always put our tree in the corner and never decorate the back, but I think not putting the branches on in the first place will be a better option,' one commented.
While another added: 'Love this! Can save more space.'
The woman is not alone in her innovative approach to this Christmas tree setup. Many others shared that they employ the same space-saving trick at home every year.
'I don't put the back branches on my tree... I fill in the gaps, and it looks fuller,' one said.
Another revealed: 'I do the same too, always suggest this to everyone who has limited space and wants to make their tree look fuller.'
A third shared: 'All my branches are bent to the front, looks so much nicer and less space to the wall.'
However, the half-tree setup did raise some concerns about stability.
One user asked: 'How do you stop the weight of the tree pulling over? It's all bunched to the front.'
To which the woman replied: 'There's never been an issue. We just use three-quarters of the legs and push against the wall.'
