Christmas: Convention-busting Christmas Trees Festive Fun - In the UK, the tradition of putting a Christmas tree in our house at Christmas has become popular thanks to her husband, Albert of Queen Victoria. He brought this custom to our shores from his native Germany and in 1841 it was widespread. A few years later, when an illustration of Victoria, Albert and their children gathered around a decorated tree at Windsor Castle has been published in The Illustrated London News , custom also spread in the United States.

Of course, just because the tree decoration comes with royal patronage and over 150 years of tradition behind it, does not mean you have to follow the predictable route this year. You can reference the classic Christmas tree, but in an individual, cool way. In fact, as many of these pictures show, you do not even need a Christmas tree for a Christmas tree. Ding dong merrily!
