Thinking of not having a tree this year unless anyone can convince me otherwise.

DD is 18 months at the moment and completely into everuthing. She loves trying to touch things that she know's she's not allowed to touch eg the fire (though it's never on when she's around), the wires at the back of the TV etc etc.

Our downstairs is a good size but is entirely open plan with no area that a tree could go and could be fenced off from dd.

Because of the above I'm thinking of not puuting a xmas tree up. I can't face the constant "No dd, please don't touch the tree." and tbh I don't think it's really fair on her as it will be so tempting for her to touch it and she just won't understand why she can't. We have no other children so they won't be disappointed and dp isn't bothered BUT ... I love having a beautifully decorated tree, it makes me feel all Christmassy and nice.

Any views?

why not have green stuff arranged festively in a high up vase?

And put the presents near that?

Or get a tiny one in a pot (I mean a TINY one, like 12 inches high).

Don't think you need a tree tbh.
