You can easily buy flocked Christmas trees from a Christmas tree store, but DIYs can be fun. Here’s how to easily create the beauty of a winter wonderland right on your old shabby tree.
Materials needed:
-Wall Texture Spray
-Cornstarch
-Glitter
I first set up tree in garage because I was sure it would make one heck of a mess.
Flock the tree as heavy or as light as you like, but for a more realistic presentation, look for pictures of snow-covered real trees and make them your inspiration. Start flocking your tree from the very top and work your way down. With this technique, there will be less work for you to do as some flocking will fall on the lower branches of your tree. If you like a natural flocked look, spray only the outer tops of branches using light even, strokes. Coat your tree lightly with the wall texture spray and add more when necessary. Now sprinkle cornstarch and glitter sparingly to achieve desired texture.
