DIY Tree Flocking

I love a flocked Christmas tree.  I grew up with one…..and then they kind of fell out of favor.  But now they are back!  The only problem is there is no way I could possibly justify buying another Christmas tree.  I may or may not own too many already.  But for two years I have wanted snow on my branches.  So I started doing a little research.  I googled some products.  I watched a few YouTube videos.  I decided on this do it yourself flocking product.

Here are all the supplies I gathered

A spray bottle of water
A kitchen strainer
A tarp
The flocking powder

I followed the instructions on the package.  I chose to flock one my trees that was not pre-lit.  I think you would definitely end up with less bright lights if your tree had lights on it simply because the bulbs would get covered.

First you spray your tree with water. Then you put the powder in the strainer, shake it over the tree while spraying water….I think this is a two person job. 

This is how my tree looked originally
