Upside Down Christmas Trees Are Back To Turn Christmas Trends On Their Heads

Everyone does the holidays differently. Some eat turkey on Christmas day while others opt for a roast. In Japan, families indulge in a KFC feast and end it with a Christmas fruity sponge cake.

Those are just a couple simple examples of how Christmas is celebrated differently. I didn't even mention the decor!

No, you didn't step into the rabbit hole into an 'Alice In Wonderland' universe.

Last year, upside down Christmas trees left the Internet absolutely flabbergasted, and they're here to stay it seems!

Many people are participating in the trend once again this holiday season.

While it seems like this style is "breaking" Christmas tradition, the practice actually dates way, way back.

According to Country Living, upside down Christmas trees may date all the way back to the 7th century!

It's rumored that the triangular shape of the tree was used to explain the Holy Trinity to pagans in Germany.

Many were also hung from ceilings of homes as there was very little space for them on the floor!

I might have to try this in my tiny apartment.

Today, they exist as pretty unique conversation pieces in homes, and are quite functional in keeping your cat from playing in the tree.
