Hello,Every time I'm fluffing mytree my fingernails get beat up my hands get scratched up it looks like me and my kitties had fights Merry Christmas 🎄!
Lol! I know what you mean. I’m still waiting for my hands to get back to “normal” after decorating my parents’ tree last week. Maybe by Christmas our hands will recover. Thanks for watching and happy holidays!!
You know I know this fishtailing the ends of the Revenant call it whatever you want fishtail Chevron whatever anyway or a dove cut but I like sometimes just a simple slant a diagonal slant is just as pretty now I'm going to roll the ribbon up on the ends then I'll do it straight across but I love a lot of your ideas very very good very professional thank you for sharing
How did you make your feel in clusters and how many yards of ribbon do I need to make those three bows you put at the top you have inspired me to do better lol
Hi there! So happy to have helped inspire you! For the clusters, I typically pull together 4-6 different picks with items of various lengths, colors, textures and then use one of the picks to wrap around the other picks to hold together. Alternatively, you can tie them together with something else like a pipe cleaner or twist tie. For the bows, they typically use about 15 ft of ribbon total for each 8-9 loop bow. If you use 2 ribbons then you would use about 7.5 ft of each ribbon. Hope that helps!!
The first thing I love twinkling lights no one seems to really realize how special they are twinkling not blinking anyway I love ribbon is my next favorite and then of course the ornaments
Yes! Twinkling lights make such a difference! I’m always trying to get my family and friends to use twinkling lights. I’ve convinced many of them too! 😀
When I push the ribbon into the tree I find it typically stays in place pretty well on its own. But I do often use the greenery of the tree to tie around the ribbon to help secure in place. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
Thank you! I’m excited to decorate this tree again for this upcoming holiday season…hopefully in another couple of weeks. Thanks for watching. Cheers!!
Thank you! And yes, I agree. You have to be careful where you look for your flocked garland. Luckily I have a couple of shopping options nearby with decent prices. Happy Friday!!
I was wondering how i was going to flock my tree ugh! What a job it would be. But your idea is brilliant! Wow looks great! And yes my hands are sore and marked up with little cuts too after decorating the tree! Great job!
Yay! So glad you found it useful. And no one will be the wiser about your tree unless you tell them! 😉 Now to go rub more lotion on our roughed-up hands, lol. Thanks for watching and happy holidays!!
What a fantastic ideal! I will be transforming my green tree to a fake flocked tree this year. I had already priced a new flocked tree but was concerned about the cost as well as the storage issue after Christmas. This fake flocked tree will take care of my problem. Thanks for saving me money and storage! As always, your finished tree is gorgeous!
Oh yay! So happy to hear this video will help you out. This idea was born out of a similar concern for me as well. I already had a green tree and didn’t want to shell out the money for a new flocked tree. And I use this same tree for other themes where flocking isn’t appropriate so it ends up being more versatile. Have fun decorating and thanks for watching!!
Love your tip for making the tree look flocked! I am totally going to try that! I enjoy your style of teaching. Your trees look professional but you have a way or making it seem achievable by anyone. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for that amazing feedback! I’m so glad you both enjoyed the video and found a tip you’d like to incorporate into your own decorating. I love holiday decorating and getting to share with others so this kind of feedback is very gratifying. Thanks for watching and have fun decorating!!
Lol! It’s nice to know I’m not alone with the nails. Agreed...totally worth it. 😊 I’m so pleased with how this tree turned out as well. Thanks so much for watching!!
It’s fabulous! It came from Decorator’s Warehouse. It’s the 4th link in the description box (jute ribbon with white trim). But I just checked and it’s sold out online. 😢 They have lots of amazing ribbon options though! Thanks for watching!!
Oh yay! I love hearing this! When I finished I told my husband I thought it might be my favorite tree I’ve ever done. I’m just so excited with how it turned out. Thank you so much for your support and for watching!!
What? You did it again dear Katherine! And better! This is a a very lovely, fancy and cute tree!! 😍🎄 I love the ribbons! Last year I made my own poinsettias, I'm still working on my diy ornaments. Your Good Taste for everything bus the best. Thank you for sharing! Take Care! 🙏
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have to admit I impressed even myself this time. ☺️ Although I really do think flocked trees do most of the work. I’m so excited you’re continuing to work on your DIY ornaments. I look forward to hearing how they turn out. Have a great weekend! 🥰
You made a wonderful job with the flocked. I'm working on that too. I have some picks, and I want to add some white paint, glitter and snow. And then make big cluster picks with the poinsettias that I made with some burlap ribbon, and some pinecones from my afghan pine tree, because I live in the desert it had only once some very small pinecones. Have a nice weekend, and here we are waiting for your next video, specially the tall tree. 💖
Wow! You are so creative. That all sounds spectacular! Keep me posted on the progress. I’ll spend this weekend and the next 2 finishing my decorating and then film my home tour beginning of December. I will have 1 or 2 more Christmas tutorials before then. It just depends on how long everything takes. Filming /editing slows me waaaay down! 😊
That’s a great question! I’d say if you’re already purchasing a new tree, you want the flocked look but don’t want the flexibility of switching between a flocked/non-flocked look, I’d go with flocked. They’re not typically that much more expensive than purchasing the regular tree plus the supplies to make it look flocked. With that being said, flocked trees are messier in my experience. I personally like the option to sometimes have the flocked look and sometimes not.

I love every tip! New subbie!
Oh yay! Thank you so much!
Another alternative to buying a flocked tree is to apply flock to an existing tree. It's fun. It looks terrific. It's easy and much less expensive.
I’ve never bought flocking but good to know! Thanks for sharing. Cheers!!
Gorgeous tree. Thank you for posting. I also chose the Buffalo check , natural burlap , and red for this years theme colors.
How fun! I bet it turned out beautifully too. Thanks so much for your comment and happy holidays!! ❤️💚
Cutting the flocked garland is absolutely genius and I now use it in my decor! Thanks for the tip!
Oh yay! Thanks for letting me know! I love sharing my tips and finding out they were useful to others as well. Cheers!

There’s nothing wrong with simple. Often it’s the most elegant. I’m so happy you enjoyed the tips I shared. Thanks for watching!!

I’m so glad I found your video, I wanted a flocked tree. I’ve been having a hard time finding a reasonable price one🤗

Enjoyed this video. Beautiful tree & instructions on decorating it!
Thank you so much! 🙏🏼 Cheers!!
you dobbie is very beautiful... I got my first one 3 years ago this past october.
Aww, thank you! She’s such a sweet girl. Dobies are the BEST dogs! Cheers!!
What's the point? You can't even see there's a tree in there when you're done overloading it with decorations.
Ha! My husband would tend to agree! 🤷🏼♀️
Your finished tree is fabulous absolutely
Yay! Thank you so much for all the generous feedback. It’s very much appreciated! Cheers!!
How do does the ribbon stay on the tree, the one you put from top to bottom ? I love it.
When I push the ribbon into the tree I find it typically stays in place pretty well on its own. But I do often use the greenery of the tree to tie around the ribbon to help secure in place. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
Love it so much! Great tips. Thanks
Thanks so much for letting me know! I’m so glad you enjoyed. Happy 2021!
2022 Love this Christmas Tree.
Thank you! It’s a lot of fun to decorate!
Turned out really cute
Thank you! I’m excited to decorate this tree again for this upcoming holiday season…hopefully in another couple of weeks. Thanks for watching. Cheers!!
Looks great 😊
Thank you for the feedback! ❤️
This is beautiful 😍 but depending on where your shopping, this can be just as if not more expensive than buying a faux flocked tree.
Thank you! And yes, I agree. You have to be careful where you look for your flocked garland. Luckily I have a couple of shopping options nearby with decent prices. Happy Friday!!

I absolutely 💯 ♥ this tree. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, thank you! So glad you enjoyed this tree. I was really pleased with how it turned out. Happy holidays!!
Where can I find that fabulous cane ribbon I love it ?
It’s fabulous! It came from Decorator’s Warehouse. It’s the 4th link in the description box (jute ribbon with white trim). But I just checked and it’s sold out online. 😢 They have lots of amazing ribbon options though! Thanks for watching!!
I think its one of my personal favorites of the trees your have ever posted! Love the tree topper 💛

Your Good Taste for everything bus the best.

Take Care! 🙏

@@themadeupokie my daughter and I watched your beautiful tree decorations over and over again .. love all your trees btw!! ❤️
That’s so incredibly sweet. You’ve made my entire week. Thank you! ❤️
that looks rubbish
Do you recommend a flocked tree 🌲 or a regular?
That’s a great question! I’d say if you’re already purchasing a new tree, you want the flocked look but don’t want the flexibility of switching between a flocked/non-flocked look, I’d go with flocked. They’re not typically that much more expensive than purchasing the regular tree plus the supplies to make it look flocked. With that being said, flocked trees are messier in my experience. I personally like the option to sometimes have the flocked look and sometimes not.
@@themadeupokie where do you buy the flocked garland?
I bought mine several years ago but saw that Walmart has some good options from their Holiday Time brand this year. And it’s available online!
