While ‘chestnuts roasting on an open fire’ and visits from one Mr Jack Frost may seem quintessential of the traditional Christmas, festivities in the land Down Under look a hell of a lot different.
Barbecued or cold platter lunches around the table in the backyard after a morning spent at the beach (that is, if you’re by the coast and it’s not storming), are closer to the Aussie Christmas experience.
Though, no matter which hemisphere you’re in, a Christmas tree is a staple in any Yuletide-celebrating household. Real pine trees are usually found in the Christmas traditionalist’s home while artificial trees are often opted for by those who are more lowkey about the season.
But if you’re somewhere in the middle and long for a taste of a White Christmas, a snowy tree is a happy medium of holiday idealism and the convenience of not having to care for a glamourised plant.

Snowy Christmas trees are also referred to as flocked or snow-flocked Christmas trees. Flocking is a process of covering a tree in a fine, white material that resembles snow; this can be done on artificial or real trees but it is most common on artificial trees.
