Confession time: who already has their Christmas tree up? Not me, ha, ha! Not so fast. I don't usually get to it until at least December. Seriously!
But if you're really eager to get yours ready, listen up. I've got a cool idea for you. I recently stumbled upon it on TikTok, and I'm definitely considering doing it, too. Check it out.
I usually end up putting lots of ornaments on and then filling the gaps with tinsel. But I had no idea there was another way to do this.
And get this, she actually uses balloons as ornaments. I mean, what? I've never heard of that. What sorcery is this? Ha, ha! I bet you need to see this to believe it.
This process is pretty easy, really. All you need is small balloons in the color that you like. Then you just blow them up halfway, so they're not too big. That should be pretty obvious, hee-hee.
This clever lady uses them instead of tinsel to make the tree look fuller. Oh my goodness. Isn't that pretty genius or what? I really like that idea.
After Ninoshka posted her video it literally blew up (excuse the pun). People started freaking out and they really wanted to see what her final tree looked like.
So she made a follow-up video to show them and voilà! How pretty is this?
It has now been viewed over 2-million times. Holy moly! Wow! So many people started praising her idea and vowed to do it, too. I bet all the party places saw a boom in balloon sales, ha, ha!
But apparently, that hasn't been a problem for Ninoshka. She does recommend placing them away from the lights just in case. Better to be safe than sorry, huh?
People with curious kids or pets need to watch out. If you have a cat with sharp claws, this might not work out that well for you, ha, ha! That's something to keep in mind.
Would this fly in your house? I like it, especially if you want to change up the look of your tree. You can get different colored balloons than the ornaments you usually use. I have to admit I might do something like this for this year's Christmas tree.
