We have a tiny London flat (floor space in the living room part of our kitchen/living room is 2m by 2m) and every year we ignore this fact and get a ridiculous Christmas tree. However this Christmas will be our first with DS, who will be 10 months in December and is incredibly mobile already. I've accepted that our normal approach to Christmas trees isn't feasible, but I've not given up on the idea completely!
DW is utterly against normal artificial trees, but we need something that won't shed needles. It's likely going to go on the breakfast bar to stay out of reach of grabbing hands. This is the current leading contender, but very open to any other suggestions. It just needs to have the ability to have lights and baubles on it!
