Perfect. It's so refreshing when the commentator doesn't spend half the video "chatting" or has an animal " helping " or spend half the video fluffing the tree. Going to erase all previous flocking videos. Yours was clear, informative ( price of the Sno) and still had humor and charm to entertain. Thank you!
Oh my goodness! I learned so much!! Thank you!
Thank you for this video! Super helpful with the comparison of different techniques. Did this method stay on with storage?
Excellent video. Thank you sooo much for posting this informative and entertaining video. Additionally thank you for taking the time to go through the three options. Equally, I too advise everyone say no to the snow in a can for use on greenery. The snow in a can frankly looks like spray paint on greenery. When my gorgeous flocked stick trees lost a lot of flocking while fluffing them, the second year I had them, I asked of my helpers to touch them up with snow in a can. Big mistake. The existing flocking took on a dingy yellowish hue when it dried.
I ordered two of each size of these stick trees. The first year I used five of these trees. Sixteen years later three of trees remain unopened. The trees have very short white needles. As a result of the short needles the flock falls off when the branches are manipulated. One year I found a branch, complete with several limbs, of flocking intact in the bottom of the tree box.
These tree are just gorgeous. I love them. They have etch frosted c7, rice lights, and regular mini lights on them. The c7 bulbs are nestled in clumps of cotton covered with flocking to resemble snow collecting between limbs near the trunk, as seen in nature. Seeing how fragile the flock is on the five I have used, I don't want to open the others until I've found flock used by manufacturers. This tree was an issue for many consumers. So much so this tree was discontinued in 2005 after just one season. The nursery said over a third they sold were returned due to the shedding flock. For those who've never had a flocked tree shedding is expected. However if you sneeze near this tree half of the flocking will fall to the floor. Which makes fluffing the tree extremely difficult. My Christmas storage room is not large enough to contain all of the trees and dozens of bin unless they're taken apart and boxed up. If you have space in your holiday storage room to leave your trees standing, covered of course, then by all means get the most beautiful flocked trees you can find. Nothing beats heavily flocked trees.
Is the flock you used in this video what tree manufacturers use? The existing flock does contain fiber strands in it. It's as if they were aware the flock had difficulty adhering to the short needles. I ask because I do not wish to redo the flocking on each of these trees entirely. Although the 9ft trees will need all new flocking. The others need touching up. If touching up possible. Will the original flock end up with a yellow tint from getting wet while touching up with the flock you used?
Cheers!
If u buy the wall texture there is one that goes on blue and dries white .. just read the can .. I used it and sprinkled white fine glitter on after. If the humidity is low this will dry within about 1 1/2 hrs , longer for high humidity..
Love this idea
“I love flocking” 😂 that earned you a 👍 😂
You are too cool! Love your personality! Very informative and helpful video! Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️
I love the look of flocked trees.
I'm totally doing this. You are effortlessly hilarious! Thank you for this! 😄
That’s flocking hilarious
oh my gosh, you are so cute Kim! this is awesome
Thank you
Would u say the texture vs flock is more permanent and less fallout when packing away?
I see that Montana spray can 😏 iykyk
Seu ajudante é muito lindo!
Will the flocking shown on the 3rd method come off completely when storing for next year?
I’m curious as well
Great video. Is this permanent? If not, how does it come off
Yes pretty permanent!
It looks really Nice.
Is it Non Toxic ? I hope for your lungs sake it is.
Can I Flock in January to get ready for next year?
Is this permanent and will there be fall out when storing? Thanks
Will probably fall off and make a huge mess.
Does the powder flock come off easily?
Not really only at the end of the season
Awesome!!!! Can you do this on a live tree too??
absolutely!
Such a sweet lady 😊😊
Aww Thank you
Does that flocking yellow with time?
it actually holds and I have had one tree that I flocked 5 years ago and it still looks great. I do reapply a bit every year to freshen it up!
Can I know how many bottle of wall texture use for 7ft xmas tree? Thank you so much!
I am thinking 2-3 can and thanks for asking. Let me know how it turns out!
How long will it last?
Does still light up with the same brightness?
Thanks!!!
Yes it is pretty much the same more glowy if that makes sense.
@@GeraniumLakeFlowers Great!!! Thenk you for your reply!!! Happy Holidays!!!!
What about colored flock like red flocked tree ? How do we do that?
We just used the White flocking spray!
WOOOOOW🥰
Hi Kim! How long should I let it set or dry?
probably one to two hours depending on the temperature of where your tree is. if it's in a cool garage it takes a bit longer
So overnight should be enough if left in my leaving room?
@@wandrisd yes that is perfect!
Great! Thank You Kim! I absolutely love the video it was my favorite and the most clearly explained.
@@wandrisd You are so nice and THANK you so much for commenting! I know your tree is going to be beautiful!
You should have shown the popcorn spray way ..
Great point! I'll keep that in mind for when i Make a Part 2 Video next year.
t would have been great to see on a real tree
The spray flocking they make today is garbage. It has always been messy but now it makes a mess + it takes 3x as much to get a decent result.
