Wondering how to flock a Christmas tree? I was wondering the same thing! I took matters into my own hands and flocked my own tree saving me tons of money and I am so happy with the end result! I'm sharing step by step how I flocked my tree and how you can achieve the same beautiful results!

How to flock a Christmas tree: The Cheap and Easy Way
-In an outdoor well-ventilated space put down a tarp and place your artificial tree in the middle.
-Fluff your entire tree and unplug any lights. You will be getting your Christmas tree wet as you flock it and you don't want to get electrocuted!
-Next, once your tree is completely fluffed get it wet with a good spray bottle! I found that working in small sections and spraying as I went worked well!
-Working in sections put your snow bond powder into a cup and lightly dump it all over the area of your Christmas tree you are working on.
-Now, once you have dumped enough snow bond on your artificial trees, get it wet again. This will make the snow bond harden and stay in place permanently.
-Repeat these steps laying your tree as many times until you have the desired amount of flocking bonded to your entire tree!
-Let sit until dry and the flocking material has hardened and you're done!

Wear a dust mask. The flock powder contains a water activated adhesive so you don't want that powder in your lungs. Keep your children and pets away from the work area. Wet down the tree with a garden hose before you begin applying flock. For best results, spray mist at the dust as it falls to the branches. That technique simulates a freshly fallen snow look. Several light applications will build up to a nice heavy layer more effectively than attempting a heavy snowfall in just one pass. The wet powder is very slippery underfoot so watch your step, particularly if you use a ladder. Damp flock feels slimy to the touch. But don't worry, after the flock dries it is pleasant to the touch, like crisp paper or fresh popcorn. The flock did not disturb the indoor/outdoor lights on my tree, but it did help hide the wires and sockets. Keep the lights unplugged until the tree is completely dry. You can apply painters tape to all the bulbs if you want to get fussy. However, the dried flock rubs off the bulbs quite easily if you don't like the look. A freshly flocked tree will shed at first. Shake the branches to dislodge loose powder before you move the tree indoors. Most of the flock will adhere. Avoid rough handling the flocked branches during decorating. I recommend stringing lights on the tree before applying flock. I used a battery operated flour sifter because my hands are weak and prone to cramping and arthritis. Flip the switch and the dust falls automatically. I bought a fine mist sprayer at a beauty supply shop. Depress the trigger once and the mist continues for several seconds. I preferred a small bottle because water is heavy. It was easier for me to refill a small bottle of water than to keep pumping a large bottle of water for any length of time.

But unfortunately much of the flocking has come off. The past few years I purchased the flocking in a can to bring the tree back to life but this looks like it would be amazing to use!

My my my... I am so happy this video popped up in my feed, I have been endlessly looking for “the perfect tree” for about a week now, I need a 9.5ft flocked tree & didn’t realize how expensive they are. I’m looking at $600-$1,000 & although I can go out & buy it, I am way to cheap to spend that much for a tree I only use 1 month out the year! I’ve recently got really in to DIY’s and I have to say I am tempted to buy a green tree & do the flocking myslef... although I’ll have to check & see if green trees are that much less, or will it not be worth it since I have to buy a new one anyways... but this is amazing for sure for ppl who already have a tree. I’ll have to share this with my mom! :)

I tried this before but I did it layer by layer in each third of the tree. So while flocking the bottom third I flocked only the lowest hinge first while leaving the other branches tied upward. Then I kept lowering hinges as I went up. Made it easier for me so maybe you can try that when you flock your other tree so I doesn’t feel so overwhelming.

N M Agalte I recommend you mist the tree first, really fine mist then and while you mist you get your flour sifter and as the product is falling you mist it, this will cause the glue to activate and it adheres to the branches without so much mess and fall out. This makes it really pretty, let it dry in between coats to build the puffy fluffy snow on the branches. Totally wear a breathing mask this stuff is really bad for you to breath! I used it and that night my lungs were on fire. It’s not good to inhale this stuff! 🌲❄️🌨 happy flocking!

I do hope you’ll see this....do you think a 25# bag is enough for a 12’ pencil tree? I bought one on clearance after Christmas and am preparing so I can have everything ready to go when it’s time to start my project!

yup! that will be plenty! I had a 9 foot tree but it was much wider and I had nearly half a bag left over when I was done

What if i add powder dye to flocking to flock my pink tree ? U think that might work? Or may be spray paint my green tree to yellow and yellow flock it with dye and flock mix?

How easy is it to string lights on a flocked tree? And does it store easily? I'm just wondering if I flock one of my extra trees if it will disassemble and store very easily.

I think it turned out beautifully and since I have three large trees, I will be trying this one one of them. Also, you had it decorated beautiful as well, but after flicking, why didn’t you flick your mantel greenery to match? Just curious! Again, beautifully done!!

My apprehension with flocked trees is that I heard they are quite messy, that they leave those white bits on your floor. Is this true? Thanks! And this project is amazing!
@themountainviewcottagehale2305
@themountainviewcottagehale2305 5 жыл бұрын
This would be a very valid apprehension! I have a 1 year old this year and he ends up flocking himself nearly daily by playing with the lower branches!! Thank goodness its non toxic! but I would say make sure you are 100% committed to the flock before you dive in! its only messy if you touch your tree! and its a hot mess to get done! If that doesn't bother you then go for it! I just vacuum a few times a week and its not that bad though!! thanks for you kind words!

Late reply but keep in mind youre going to pay more for this product closer to the season its in high demand. Common sense tells you to buy it off season so you dont pay as much.
