Thinking about how to decorate your Christmas tree, but you can't seem to get your head round a maths test? We have a suggestion for you to decorate it in an eco-friendly way this Christmas. Perhaps this is the perfect solution for you.

What can go on a Christmas tree? Anything, really. Starting with candy canes, rustling candies, colourful bows and gingerbread men. It all depends on your creativity and your courage.

This year we challenge you to make your Christmas tree eco. It's up to you to accept it.

How to decorate your Christmas tree? TOP3 of our eco decorating ideas 

• dried fruit in a festive version - Apples, oranges and lemons are sure to add a splash of colour to your Christmas tree. Importantly, preparing these ornaments is simple. All you need to do is thinly slice the fruit, then dry them or lightly toast them for a few minutes in the oven. If you like the smell of cloves, you can decorate the dried fruit with them.
• Christmas paper stars - Paper breakfast bags, scissors and a bit of glue are all it takes to make eco ornaments for your Christmas tree to enjoy at the Christmas table. These ornaments are also simple to make. All you need is a few strokes with scissors, a drop of glue and you're done. You can find detailed instructions online on how to make such a star. We guarantee, it won't take you more than 5 minutes per star. 
• papier-mâché figurines - These require considerably more work than the previous two suggestions, but it is worth your time because the result will be impressive. Importantly, you can make the paper pulp yourself. You prepare it by combining old newspapers, flour and water. With the help of kitchen utensils, you can mould the mixture into unique Christmas tree ornaments.

You can make the suggested Christmas tree decorations yourself, but also with your loved ones. This is an ideal opportunity to get together and talk. However, if for various reasons you don't have time to make ornaments, you can use last year's ornaments. This is also an eco-friendly approach to decorating your Christmas tree.
