Just because Christmas is a holiday filled with traditions doesn't mean your holiday decorations have to be traditional. Yes, people everywhere are finding new creative ways to deck their halls with DIY Christmas trees and we can't get enough.

Some of the beauties on the list were actually made with pine, while other people had to construct their trees from whatever was laying around. No matter what materials their creators used they are all unique and some, even hilarious. From elaborate tree space portals to rope climbing trees this list shows off the best and the brightest designs from Christmas enthusiasts who like to think outside the box. Scroll down below to check out all the awesome creations and don't forget to upvote your favs.

Awesome, but slightly unsettling. You cut down a tree to make books then used those books to make a tree!

    How are they put together? I believe these succulents are grounded, so are there very tiny plant pots or maybe you somehow managed to put them in the soil without it? I am really curious now. And, nevermind how you did this, it looks very impressive and creative. I like it very much.

    In many work places people usually like to decorate because they will get the same money from that than doing their normal (and probably more boring) job.
