Some of us may not get to enjoy a snowy white Christmas because we don’t live in locations with much snow. Buy with a flocked artificial Christmas tree, we can still create that perfect holiday atmosphere.

Flocking is the process of covering a tree with fake snow. It creates an awe-inspiring and classic Christmas ambiance. As explained by Southern Living, flocking is “a synthetic dust or powder that you can use to create the look of an artificial Christmas tree with snow indoors.”

You may purchase flocked trees from a tree shop to enjoy the flocking effect. And if you will, you may also flock by yourself. To flock a tree using the DIY method, you would need paintbrush, tufts, mists, or self-adhesive white powder. With this, you are able to give your tree branches a snowy effect. If done correctly, a great flocking would resemble fresh snowfall.

Flocked artificial Christmas trees are becoming increasingly popular for a number of reasons. Some are:

1. LONG LASTING

Flocking mixtures hold moisture in tree branches by sealing them. This would prevent the tree from drying out as quickly. Water doesn’t completely disappear from the tree, but it’s retained for much longer periods of time.

2. ANTI-FLAMMABLE

Fire hazards are reduced by flame-retardant ingredients used in flocking mixtures.

3. EASY TO MAINTAIN

Have you ever been hurt by a Christmas tree needle? Well, flocked real trees hold their needles well, making them easier to clean and less harmful.

Over the years, flocked trees have developed different colors other than the original white. So, both artificial and real trees can be flocked.
