It looks a good degrees cooler in the room. Though the addition of the snow did cool the room, our intense anxiety while watching the Longhorns succumb to the Jayhawks heated the room at an equal and opposite rate. Can of snow spray I used this one. Idk, seems smart. If your tree is dusty, wipe off dust with a dry cloth.
Shake can of snow spray vigorously. Spray the tree, directing the nozzle downwards on the tree branches as if it were real snow falling on the tree. For a natural look, only spray the outside branches that would actually be dusted with snow if it were snowing outside.
Repeat as necessary for your desired level of snow appearance. I did two coats, which looks like a light dusting of snow. With a warm, damp towel, gently wipe the snow from the bulbs. Probably not totally necessary, I just wanted the bulbs to stand out more. Let dry for at least 4 hours. I left mine overnight just to be safe.
Enjoy your semi-permanent dusting of snow. Protect the base of the tree or any part of your item you don't want to flock by wrapping it with plastic sheeting or a plastic bag.
Open and fluff the branches of the tree for a fuller look. Make sure to fluff before flocking your Christmas tree. Continue layering the flocking spray until reached desired coverage. The closer and more you spray, the heavier the snow appears.
Once you are done spraying the branches, let them dry. Decorate with lights and ornaments as desired. Each product we feature has been independently selected and reviewed by our editorial team.

Once September finally arrived I set to work gathering what I needed so that I could finally start decorating for Christmas! So as soon as big sis was enrolled in her new school and little sis was down for a nap we got to work on flocking this tree. And with Roger at home on this particular day he was able to assemble the tree and carry it outside for me.
Luckily, the Christmas tree was crazy easy to flock and it looks even more gorgeous than we had hoped! Christmas Tree. Garden Hose. Garden Hose Nozzle with Mister. Spray Bottle. Kitchen Sifter — optional. Alternatively you can use a spray bottle to mist your Christmas tree, but I found it was faster and easer to use a garden hose.
The snow is meant to adhere to the water so make sure that all of the branches are evenly coated with water. Shake the snow onto the Christmas tree starting at the top and working your way around and down the tree.
The instructions on the package say to use a kitchen sifter and spray bottle to do this, but the sifter clogged up in about 2 minutes because the wind was blowing the water from the spray bottle up onto the sifter. Side note: I highly recommend you do this on a non windy day, I had limited time while the baby slept and big sis was in school so I made do with a little bit of wind.
Once your tree is coated with snow to your liking, apply a final coat of misty water on top of the snow so that the snow will harden to the branches. Click here to see a video tutorial on my Instagram Reels!
