You can make a traditional Ukrainian Christmas tree - a didukh from spikelets and viburnum

Eco-activists called on Ukrainians not to destroy live trees to celebrate Christmas and New Year, but to create a creative festive composition from ears of corn, paper, nets, etc.

The team of the Yapomoga public organization on Facebook has prepared TOP-5 ideas for Christmas trees that will save forests and the environment, and their production will create a festive mood for the whole family.

Such hand-made Christmas trees can be a good gift for relatives and friends and decorate a home, school auditorium or office.

"Imagine, involve the children in creating your own unique New Year's beauty, spend time together and save a live Christmas tree - let it grow," urged eco-activists.

The authors emphasized that this is only a small part, because wonderful Christmas trees can be made even from homemade slippers. 

You can also put pine or fir branches at home to fill it with the aroma of needles and "New Year's mood".

As EcoPolitic reported before, in Kyiv and the region on the eve of the New Year holidays, eco-inspectors, forest guards and law enforcement officers will conduct operation "New Year's tree" to strengthen forest protection and coniferous plantations.
