I'm confused... HOW IS THIS WORKING?? Is it suspended by clear wire or something??
Lisa Whipp Myhre 6 years ago
I knew a guy that did this and yep. He used the thinnest fishing line out there.

Sorry, but no. Not a chance that many lines would not show up in any capacity in a photo. It's a simple photoshop trick. You take a pic of the wall before the display, then put the stuff up with string, then use photoshop to remove the strings and reveal the photo of the actual background underneath. The photo does look great though.

I've always wanted to do this, but after looking at the instructions, no way!
Mia 7 years ago
You guys, this isn't really levitating lol! Its done in a way that if you aren't close to the tree or taking pics, it looks like it. How this person did this, was that you have to hang the balls in a very fine clear wire that makes it look like it. It takes some time to do, but if you don't have kids or whatever, hell why not.
Robert Dufresne 7 years ago
You can't see any of the wires? I wonder what they used. https://www.handimania.com/diy/floating-christmas-tree.html

This appears to be photoshopped. Check the shadows on the floor, the blurs on the curtains and the radiator, and some "half balls" near the mid of the triangle. Also, no strings visible at all?
Débora Gualberto 7 years ago
Go to the source picture, in the Instagram account there's another picture where you can see the strings. If you'd just bothered to look before commenting....

My Living Succulent Christmas Tree
Enuya 7 years ago
How are they put together? I believe these succulents are grounded, so are there very tiny plant pots or maybe you somehow managed to put them in the soil without it? I am really curious now. And, nevermind how you did this, it looks very impressive and creative. I like it very much.

When I was little, my dad who was divorced from my mom, couldnt afford a tree one year, so he cut one out of wrapping paper and taped it to the wall. To me it was the greatest thing in the world. Fast forward to my 20s, living alone with my cat and broke. I did the same that Christmas, even made a paper Angel. Again, it was one if my favorite trees ever.

What no Christmas Ficus? We have these horrible, unfluffed, fake trees in our classrooms... so I reappropriated one, and my cubemate named it Farkas the Christmas Ficus! 20181129_1...7a2732.jpg

Not sure if this counts as a cool Christmas tree, but my Christmas tree is black. It has red lights and only red lights. And it has white, clear, and red ornaments! Oh.... There is also a pentagram as the star. I'm being serious, this is my tree theme this year and im proud of it! My family actually came up with the idea.

My mother in law was very proud of her blue and white artificial tree one year. So proud, in fact, that she plastic wrapped the whole tree with the decorations still on it and put it in the storage unit. The next year she took it out, unwrapped it, replaced a few broken bulbs and she had the same tree as last year with about 10 minutes of set up effort. Genius!
