How to Make A Christmas Tree Look Fuller

[@megflat2981]

Gorgeous! Glad you are NOT Typically Utube Hobby lobby or Michael exaggerated bring everything from your basement Xmas puke! This is extremely elegant and more enjoyable!

[@heatherwatts9992]

Using gold ornaments as light reflectors deep inside the tree is a brilliant tip. I did this on my tree and it worked so well thank you.

[@JenniferDecorates]

Wonderful!

[@colsen4616]

Lol red berries were my gateway sprig - tucked in a few I had left over from a project, and was amazed how that simple addition took my tree to the next level! Sprigs are so useful, as you’ve shown in many videos, and are available at all price points. I’m still using those I purchased years ago for under a dollar at Michael’s.

[@JenniferDecorates]

Oh wow! Wonderful!!

[@b.walker5955]

Oh Yippee! Truly appreciate "permission" to add the different variety of evergreen picks. With your sage advice, I will release my inner wild child! 🤗 I do take stuffing the interior of the tree a bit further. I cram as many lights in there that I can. Even a pre lit tree benefits from more lights. SO much more depth! I have a large amount of glass metallic ornaments that really throw the light, your golden layer is SPOT ON. Diamond pattern, another brilliant method. Thanks Jennifer! PS. Wear gloves when fluffing your tree, you will thank ME for that one!

[@beckyann7572]

Thank you for the tips, i bought a prelite tree last year, but even with fluffing the branches it looked a little stiff, artificial. These tips will help break up the spaces where the eye would settle in the middle! Thank you for sharing!

[@Feequilts]

I like to use rubber gloves to fluff the tree, that way my hands don’t get itchy. I also wear a long sleeve shirt to save the arms. I love to put blue/navy baubles in the centre so if you can peek through, it looks like the sky or twilight. I have a tall, skinny tree and popping the picks gives it a wider girth. This year I decided to put a little tape on the end of the lights so I know where the end is when I take them off and save my sanity!

[@JenniferDecorates]

Okay, that. is. brilliant!

Love this for filling in tree. Should sprigs be added before or after ribbon?

[@adbarrett5498]

Excellent idea having the balls in the middle! Totally doing that. I absolutely love the ribbon on the tree at the end of the video. Any chance you could share where I might purchase the same ribbon? I've been collecting unfinished wooden nutcrackers and have stained each one in a different, semi- transparent warm wood, red or green stain. Planning a sort of natural woodsy theme this year. I've just painted our mantel in Sherwin Williams Urbane Bronze - the ribbon would be stunning with that paint color and our nutcrackers. Thanks!

You just saved me a huge headache.

Gave up thinking I'm just using it wrong and not wrapping around right...... We have extra decorations, I NEVER thought about using them on the *inside* THANK YOU!!!!!!!

Hobby lobby has everything at 40% off during Thanksgiving/fall season so you can get almost all the greenery and poinsettia flowers for a fraction. I get my tree ribbon at walmart. You get a big roll for about 5 bucks. I typically get 3 rolls per tree. Also Dollar tree has pretty good deals on ornaments, you can't go wrong with it... It's only a dollar each 😁

[@UltraSonic737]

I just found an artificial 6-foot Hamilton Fur prelit tree out by the dumpster outside my apartment building, in the original box, out in the snow. I was planning on saving up to get my own 7.5-foot artificial tree but due to recent unforseen financial circumstances I won't be able to do that right now, so this discovery was timed pretty interestingly. If I do wind up keeping it, I might get those tree branch sprigs you were talking about to make it look fuller. Is there any way to hang actual ornaments from the sprigs, or are they mainly used to make a tree look fuller only?

[@midlifemom5829]

Instead of stringing lights, how about a prelit tree?

[@jenniferbell4571]

Serious question: Wouldn’t it cost about the same to buy a fuller, more expensive tree from the start?

[@JenniferDecorates]

Well, maybe, but I get my green sprigs half off, and then whether I have an expensive tree or not, I still add tons of sprigs. I'm a bit crazy about adding to Christmas trees! Thank you for watching!

[@rachelsotora2668]

I was also wondering the same thing but I suppose if you hit up the after Christmas sales you could do it at a lower cost.

[@elizabethgallaher1919]

Yes. But this way you have more texture more character. ..

[@MKLA000]

I think this is a good idea for me, because I got my Christmas tree from 99 cent store for $20 and this is just the second Christmas I am using it. You know it has the cheap look of course. However, I don't want throw it away yet but want it to look like those at least like Target.

[@kanderson1425]

A nice artificial tree can be upwards of $500.... So probably not.

[@lissasanchez3617]

Well explain

[@constantineangelgutierrez1851]

fabulous

[@lindajohnson7838]

An inexpensive trip I have used for years as an event decorator....flock small clumps of baby’s breath. You can add angel dust (ex fine white glitter if you like) Place in those bare spots. Looks great with twinkle lights. Another decorating hunk.....After Christmas, remove the Christmas bulbs but leave the lights on the tree. Add news years hats, blowers, plastic wine, champagne glasses and other party treats/favors....don’t get the tree down before Valentine’s Day....add sweet treats, faux red roses, small stuffed animals.....than......for Pete’s sake get that tree down.🎄🎄🎄

My question to you is when do you put your lights on and do you put then to the front or to the back of the tree? Love your tree getting a new one this year have had the other one for 22 years and I will save some of the branches to fill in like you have done. Stay Safe till the next time.

[@ebonywhite992]

It is beautifully full after adding all of the sprigs. But wouldn't it be more cost effective to buy a better, fuller tree to being with? Springs are not inexpensive, especially considering the number used to fill in the bare spots.
