Say goodbye to the Christmas tree and hello to the Christmas pineapple

Are you looking for a way to spice up your Christmas tree? Then this is definitely for you!

People are saying goodbye to the traditional tree and opting for large pineapples, decorated in fairy lights and ornaments. Yes, you read right, baubles are being hung from the head of the pineapple to create a Christmas tree effect – and we’ve got to admit, we’re in love with the idea.

The new 'trees' cost next to nothing and if you get hungry over the festive season, you can always enjoy the Pineapple-based Christmas tree.
