Sometimes you have to think outside of the box when you have limited space or money but still want a Christmas tree. A light Christmas tree only requires string lights, hooks, a yardstick, and a pencil. All you do first is to draw the Christmas tree outline with the yardstick on the wall. Once you have everything outlined, then use some Command Strip hooks and put it all around the outlined triangle. Command Strips are great to use because they do not cause damage to the wall when you are ready to take down your Christmas tree. Next, string the lights back and forward over the Christmas tree outline. There you have your Christmas tree. Just make sure you leave part of the lights out so that you can plug in the lights.
