Absolutely! This has been most helpful. Thank you! 😊
Beautiful home! Love the high ceilings!!! Thank you for sharing ❤
I used this snow flock years ago on a real tree; put the tree up the 18th of Dec, had to take the tree down the day after Christmas, it smelled like sour milk; never did it again! It did look great when done, but, the smell was over whelming. Nice job on your 🎄! 👍🏻👍🏻
Very helpful! Thanks 😊
I just flocked mine with the same thing! Debating which colored string of lights to use, green or white. What did you use?
Very cute
Great idea thanks
Ty!! I bought the same can and had no idea what to do. Every other video used powders and mixtures?! Like I want to just spray my can lol 😂 🥰

Can you remove the white snow later after you spray it and let it dried overnight?
Awesome.. thanks for this video

It doesn’t comes off after letting it dry overnight? I also have the same spray and planning to do it to my newly bought Christmas tree
See…. I love this! Every tree I’ve seen “Flocked” it’s way over the top! Too much clumpy white,fake looking powder on them! Ty for this video! I have a beautiful green artificial tree with dusted snowy beaches and pine ones… all I need is probably one can and it will look beautiful!

The clumps look like actual snow though, as opposed to paint.
I bought it at Walmart for $1.48, I bought my tree second hand(it’s 7.5ft) for $20 so total I spent like $26!!
Love the video! Will the lights on a tree be affected by the snow spray?

Nice job guys. How's the back? ;)

BEWARE: THIS SPRAY IS NOT FOR FLOCKING TREES! It’s for glass windows. You can spray the tips of your Christmas tree but don’t go crazy with it and don’t do a heavy spray because it will take forever to dry. It even says it on the can. I made the mistake and tried to use this stuff on my pre-lit 6.5 ft artificial tree last year and IT IS messy if you use too much. If you’re looking for a heavy flocked look I would suggest just getting an already flocked tree. I’m scared to pull mine out of the box that I used that spray on last year because it is going to be MESSY.
Hi. Thanks for posting this! Your tree came out so pretty. i have a similar tree and I’m debating on flocking it as well. Was your tree Pre lit? I couldn’t tell. I heard that this technique dims alot of the bulbs since the spray will get on them. What was your experience?

It holds pretty well! When you originally spray it it’ll definitely leave some dust but overall didn’t really have any issues!
Looks nice! But, this kind of “snow” has been around for many years, I grew up in the 60’s & it was used when I was a kid. I’m pretty sure it will get gross looking after being packed away for a while and if it doesn’t, I would imagine it would be a flaky mess. I’d be interested to know how it did after being packed away a year...Any updates? 😊🎄

I just saw a video that used white pain and ceiling popcorn spray for texture and to avoid yellowish future discoloration.
I’m 66 & had that tree…donated it to relatives…too much work for a Single woman. I think I was in my late 40s when I got it. My brother got upset with me bc I left it up in MY living room one year bc it was so much work…LOL …fast forward brought an expensive lighted one about $500….next year lights half work ! It’s all a rip off or work. You can get snow from Hobby Lobby, add iridescent glitter for look of fallen snow on lights/sun. Happy Holidays!

Does it rub off?
Love your tree but the cans you used are not tree flocking it's stated on the back of the can. I do use this along with glue shaving cream and cornstarch and fake snow flakes and spray adhesive not so much of the spray snow will fall off while adding lights and ornaments.
Is it a permanent paint?
Can I do this on a real tree? 🌲

That is not flocking spray. If you read the back of the can... They say it isn't for flocking.
