The Christmas tree tradition dates back thousands of years, according to WhyChristmas.com. Revelers used the evergreen fir tree to celebrate winter festivals. In Christianity, the tree is seen as a symbol of everlasting life with God. Tallinn, Estonia and Riga, Latvia claim to be the location of the first documented use of a Christmas tree.
Here’s a look at how celebrities are preparing for Christmas and their Christmas trees.
