Valentine's Day trees are fast becoming a big trend

Is your Christmas tree still up? Don't worry if it is because there's a new way to breathe some life back into it and keep it up for a few more weeks.

People have turned their trees into Valentine's Day shrines and it's a trend that is starting to take off.

They're pretty much just one big symbol of love. Think hearts and lots of red and pink — these elaborately styled trees definitely add big impact to the room.

If you scroll through the hashtag '#ValentineTree' on Instagram you'll be hit hard with a lot of over-the-top, loved-up inspiration, and the look is easier than you'd think to achieve at home.

Love hearts in colours from red to pink and different patterns cover the trees, while streamers, big bows and glitter add to the full effect.

It will turn your living room into an enchanted love nest that will look like it's been plucked right out of a soppy romantic comedy.

For those who are ready to really embrace the trend, why not cover your tree in sweet heart candy-inspired hearts — which really gives off Valentine's Day vibes.

Grab a bunch of heart-shaped boxes or big fake roses from your local discount store and throw them on the tree too. This is the kind of styling project where the more you put on the better it will look.

Decorating a white tree will give the biggest impact with bold colours like red against the plain branches, but if you've only got a traditional green tree it will still work.

Obviously it's a bold trend, but if your tree is still up and you're not ready to give up on the festivities just yet, why not give it a go?
