Alternative Christmas tree: twig style Cherry blossom tree

Twig style Christmas trees have been hugely popular over the last few years, but if you fancy one that can be used all year around – indoor and outside – then look no further.

The white cherry blossom tree, from Iconic Lights, has all the style and simplicity of the twig trees, but without the wintery dusting of snow. The branches are all fully adjustable, so you can shape it how you desire and each of the lights features a dainty Sakura blossom style design.

This medium sized tree is battery operated and is adorned with 120 warm white LED lights. One of the biggest added bonuses, in our view, is that it’s multi-functional and has been weatherproofed, so it’s suitable for use indoors or outside in your garden.

For Christmas, you can opt for the minimal look and simply use it as it is, or add a few of your favourite decorations. The tree can be used to as a lighting decoration or feature inside your home, or be used to create an attractively lit decoration outside.

We used this tree as part of a previous post, to help add an extra touch of atmosphere to a romantic dinner for two and the lighting and style is perfect for this, as you can see here:

We’re also looking forward to trying it outside as an outdoor Christmas decoration, but so far it’s been a bit too windy lately to try this out. The base of the tree is sturdy and has four holes that you can use to peg the tree in place when it’s outside, but in super gusty weather, we didn’t want to risk it getting blown over on its first excursion outside! It looks like it will be fine in our usual winter weather though. The battery compartment is well secured and it could be extra weather-proofed by the addition of a simple plastic bag around it.

At just £30 from Iconic Lights, the white cherry blossom tree is a great buy for Christmas. We can easily imagine it being used during the rest of the year to brighten up a dark corner, add atmosphere or transformed into an Easter tree too.
