Fluff Out Your Tree Like An Expert
It's the most exciting part of decorating, getting the Christmas Tree out of it's box ready for the festivities to begin! Your We R Christmas tree will require some fluffing when you unbox it as it has been compressed tightly for shipping.
Fluffing involves separating the branches and fanning them out so that your artificial tree looks full and more realistic.
Below is a video of our in-house tree design specialist demonstrating how to fluff a Christmas tree.
To ensure your tree is as full as possible you will need to spend time and effort fluffing and manipulating the branches. Start at the back of your branches, fan each tip and spread the branches so they cover the trunk/middle of your tree. When moving onto the next branch, overlap the branches to create a fuller appearance in the middle of your tree.
Pull the side branches and tips out as you work your way to the front of the branch separating any sprigs off the main stem. Layer the tips on top of one another to create a realistic look like the foliage on a real tree. Once you've fanned and fluffed out each individual section of your tree, ensure that the light connectors are screwed into one another if your tree is pre-lit.
You can do this when slotting the sections into one another. The connectors are the same colour as your tree and are well camouflaged by your trees branches.The connectors are located in the middle of the tree and are attached to the lights,
If you have a tree 7ft+ we recommend fanning out the top before slotting it into the middle section of your tree. This is so you're not on a ladder for a prolonged period of time.
Shaping a tree can be time consuming, so we recommend that you do this with your family or friends.
If you are struggling to get the look you desire why not consult a product photo of your tree, some trees are designed to be shaped in certain ways so it is always a good idea to use visual cues to your advantage.
