Are you looking for something new to do with your tree? Never fear, because TikTok is here!
One user figured out a new thing to do with tinsel, and it's actually adorable. Goodbye, random strands on the tree. Hello, cute new style!
So, what you're going to do is take the end of your tinsel and wrap it around the tip of one of your tree's branches. Tuck the end into the tight loop and cut the end off.
If you can't get the whole looping thing right, try simply tying a knot! Cut any strands that get caught in the looping process and fluff your tinsel strands out to create some dimension.
It's a fireworks tree! I think this hack gives the tree a very mid-century, retro kind of vibe. I'm super into how the branches pop with the bursts of tinsel on them!
They loved that it looks like the tree is bursting with fireworks! That's exactly what I think it looks like, too. It's so fun and festive, and it also has a New Year's vibe!
Honestly, I think you could reuse them! Just loosen them off the branch and rewrap them next year. If you tied a knot, leave it in the knot shape and pop it back on the branch next time!
Teana made another TikTok demonstrating her pulling the tinsel off the tree, then reattaching it without an issue. So no, it's not permanent. And yes, it is reusable!
As it turns out, no! Most of Teana's time was used picking out the placement for the fireworks themselves. It didn't take much time to get them wrapped on the branches, which makes me feel great about wanting to try this out.
I think people on the internet have forgotten that we don't have to comment on every single thing we don't care for. We can just keep scrolling if we're not into it.
I absolutely love this hack, and I'm actually going to try it. We have a spare thing of mint tinsel that we've been dying to do something with. Now we have a project to do!
Would you try this hack? Let me know!
