Comment “Cluster” and then let’s talk about cluster lights on the trunk—one of my favorite tricks for creating a tree that looks deeper, brighter, and extra magical. ✨

Here’s why it works:
🌟 It lights up the deepest parts of the tree, so the glow shines through your ornaments and decor.
🌟 You can keep your _outer lights_ on steady and set the cluster lights on the trunk to twinkle mode, giving you _just_ the right amount of subtle movement.
🌟 It adds that extra sparkle… especially if you’re a little extra (guilty! 🙋‍♀️).

It’s simple, stunning, and makes a huge difference in the final look.

Comment “ Cluster” for the best cluster lights!

I kept getting asked, “How many does it take to light a 10 foot tree?” So, I tested it myself.

🌲 It took 6 strands to cover the branches beautifully.

🌟 Want to go extra? Add 2 on the trunk + 3 cascading branches on top = 13,800 lights of Christmas magic.

Each strand is 50 feet long with 1,500 lights, connectable up to 150 feet / 4,500 lights.

✅ Perfect warm white (not orange)
✅ Twinkle + multiple modes
✅ Remote, dimmer, and timer included

There is still time to get your cluster lights.

You can help keep your lights tangle free by unwinding or unfastening them before you start putting them on your tree or mantel. Just unwind the lights and let them hang out on the floor, they will be fine even if you step on them. They are super sturdy!

I never put my owls away! I use them at Christmas and all year long. They are perfect Fall decor. Also, new and very versatile are the Norfolk Pune picks I have under the owls. I used them in a Christmas tree last year and then all year long on my mantel.

This telescope was a Christmas gift for my son, but we packed it up and took it to Hill Country in Texas to get a better look at the night sky.

This telescope is easily packed and easy to use. On a clear night, you can get a great shot of the moon.

Great gift idea and fun to travel with.

It’s back to school time and that means mom has to keep up with everyone’s schedules, plus her own! That’s why I prefer academic year calendars and planners. It’s just easier to keep all the school activities and sports on the academic year. These planners are the best academic year planners I’ve found for moms and students. I bought the smaller weekly one for my high school daughter to keep, but I always get the full page daily size for myself. If it doesn’t get written down in my planner, it doesn’t get done! #oldschool #paperplanner

Tree lost its flock? Do this! 👇

So many people love the look of a flocked Christmas tree and I am one of them! Man, they are really gorgeous, especially when the flock is fresh.

Well, if you have a flocked tree, Im sure you’ve noticed how much Glock falls off every year when you are setting your tree up, decorating, then taking it down, etc. After a few years, you might be thinking, it’s looking more green than flocked.

That’s when you give that old Glock job a little refresh. It’s not hard to do and I just walked through it in Stories. If you missed it, it’s saved in Highlights under Flock Tutorial.

What you’ll need for this job…
1. A Christmas tree
2. Flock
3. Water

First, spray your branch with water. Next, add your flock. Then, spray with water again. Repeat as much as necessary on each branch.

Before you know it, you’ll have a beautiful flocked tree again!

#LTKHoliday #LTKhome #LTKSeasonal

It’s not hard to refresh your flock on a flocked Christmas tree that has lost flock over the years. Check out all my videos here on how to do it.
