For people living in apartments, tiny homes, or other small spaces, a traditional pine tree often isn't a reasonable decor piece, as it can be big and bulky. Smaller trees, like the style made famous in "A Charlie Brown Christmas," can also be a solution — but they may not everyone's first choice when it comes to decor. That's why this holiday season, some people are instead turning to succulent trees, which are widely available on Etsy. The plant pieces are shaped like traditional Christmas trees, but they're made of multiple succulents, adding a fun twist to holiday decorations.
