The quirky new B&Q Christmas tree that is totally off the wall – quite literally
Not what we were expecting when we envisioned a wall-mounted tree...
Each year we delight in the next 'BIG' thing for Christmas trees. Take for instance John Lewis & Partners' upside down tree circa 2017. Or even more outside the box, the book trees of Christmas' past. This year the award, so far, for most original design is the wall-mounted B&Q Christmas tree.
With an ultra quirky wall-mountable design, appearing to project out of the wall, this tree is certainly one of the most unique designs you’ll find for Christmas 2019.

Quirky new B&Q Christmas tree
The 3ft pre-lit wall tree comes complete with a metal bracket to affix it safely to the wall. Specially designed to be mounted on a wall, could this be the ideal tree for homes with limited space?
We're just not sure where we could see this used to best potential. Perhaps by a front door? Or is it best seen above a mantlepiece like the alternative wreath for 2019?!

Made with wrapped branches for a real tree look, this quirky number simply needs decorations to really bring it to life. Said branches need a quick fluff-up to make sure they look nice and full before adorning with decorations. Just be mindful of which decorations your use, depending if using the tree indoors or outside.
