Christmas enthusiasts are reimagining holiday traditions with creative flair. It started at Halloween, when in 2016, fans swapped carved pumpkins for pineapples with monstrous faces and decked out black-and-orange trees. The pineapple's appeal endures—this season, it's the star of Christmas displays, adorned with hanging baubles and garlands wrapped around its core.
This Instagram-born trend showcases sleek versions with autumn-hued ornaments that match the fruit's warm ocher tones, alongside bolder, kitschier setups featuring multicolored garlands, twinkling lights, and petite gifts at the base. Why go for a pineapple tree? It's budget-friendly, infuses winter with tropical warmth, and is fully recyclable—enjoy it as a post-holiday treat. Draw inspiration from our curated Instagram picks. Just add Santa in swim trunks, and you're island-bound!
