Trade in your standard fake Christmas tree for something more fun this year.

This mini succulent tree is not only a great DIY project to try, but it's made from three affordable Kmart items –  all under $10.

The ingenious DIY was first shared to the Facebook group Kmart Mums by Jessica Keating and quickly earned up 3.2k likes.

The simple tree is not only suitable for apartment living, but is the perfect way to combine Christmas decorations with indoor plants. 

Remove the twinkling lights from the wicker cone.

Fill the cone with sphagnum moss all the way to the tip. 

Place the moss-filled tree into the pot and fill pot with soil.

Starting at the bottom with large succulents, poking the stems of the succulent cuttings into the soil. Use smaller succulents as you move up the tree, poking a small hole in the moss for each cutting.

Keep moist with daily watering.
