A great reference for this Christmas is the Christmas Eves, which will help you give a touch of color and project the best of the Christmas spirit. One of the great options to be able to potentiate the view of this plant is to pass it to a pot of preference of a smooth color and to place in the middle of the pot a thick ribbon using very representative colors of the season. It is possible to make a very attractive bun and in the free ends add some ornaments like bells or nuts. There is also an option where small gifts are hung around the ribbon, each one with a number; referring to the advent calendar in a very original way.

These plants are perfect for this time of year as they can withstand low temperatures and create a very Christmassy atmosphere. But sometimes the pots they have are not the most aesthetic. Choose to create small cloth or paper sacks to cover the base and you can complement them with ribbons or nuts around them. Depending on the height of each pine tree it is possible to use one or several ornaments in an asymmetric way for a more modern style.

Great idea to be able to place them in the center of the table, choose to integrate the plant inside the crate, wooden pots, or wicker baskets. Christmas Eve can be beautifully combined with other types of plants you have around you. It is recommended to add small branches and nuts to give a better view. You can play with the diameter of each base to create different designs. I recommend that the crate be painted in plain colors, preferably gold, silver, or white to make the arrangement stand out even more. Don’t forget to sand it and varnish it so you can make a safe base without risks to accidents. In order to add soil to the base, add a plastic bag around it to help contain all the organic matter inside.
