9 Christmas Tree for Small Spaces Picks That Still Look Like a Tree

A small apartment tree has to fit in the floor space of a bookcase. This list for a Christmas tree for small spaces runs from a 3 foot tabletop tree and a slim 6 foot pencil tree to a flat wall tree and a lit branch, plus the skirt, topper and ornaments that finish a small one. I'm planning a nursery in a small space this year, so I count inches before anything else.

Questions people ask

What is the best Christmas tree for small spaces?

A tabletop or slim tree usually fits best, because it takes little floor space. Measure the corner or surface and check the listed height and width.

What can I use instead of a Christmas tree in a small space?

A wall-mounted tree, a branch with lights or a cone-shaped tree uses less room. All of these keep the floor clear.

Where to put a Christmas tree when you have no space?

Use a table, console or shelf for a tabletop tree, or mount a flat tree on the wall. Keep it away from heaters and walkways.

How to have a Christmas tree in a small space?

Choose a slim or tabletop tree and put it in a corner or on a surface. Skip a wide skirt or large base to save room.

Are half Christmas trees worth it for small spaces?

They can be, if floor space is the main problem, because a half tree sits flat against a wall. Check the listed depth and height first.
