It’s almost Christmas, the lights are up, carols are playing in every store, and the big malls have got their decorations up – you can’t miss Landmark’s extravagant display or Festival Walk’s iconic tree! And so it’s time for you to get your home ready for celebrations. Step one, of course, is getting your tree! Hong Kong houses may be small, but that doesn’t mean you can’t spruce them up to celebrate the festivities. So here’s your guide to real, fake and recycled trees, so that you have plenty of time to decorate and get ready for the holidays.
