Christmas Tree Dress!



You know its the holiday season when you break out a Christmas tree dress! This dress is so easy to make and it packs a real statement! It is perfect for an ugly sweater party, or just every day life! Also, I apologize in advance, I accidentally deleted all the pictures I took while making it so it will just be a step by step tutorial. But it is so easy you can make it no problem! 

First, start with a black (or green!) basic skater dress. The one I used was from H&M


Then, the most important step is to hot glue the garland on to the dress. It is super important to remember that the dress is stretchy so in order to make sure the dress fits after the garland is on, don't glue the garland tight! Or better yet, use a human model! I used all 50 feet of the garland from Target.


Then comes the fun part, gluing on the ornaments! I used glitter ornaments from the $1 section at Target. To glue them on I took off the metal hook and put a circle of hot glue to make sure they stay. Make sure you only glue them on the front of the dress though, you don't want to sit on the ornaments and break them!


For the star on top, I used a light plastic star that I hot glued onto a thick headband. The exact star I used wasn't online but I'm sure it is in most local Target stores! 



Happy Holidays everyone! If you make the dress make sure to post it on Instagram and tag me @celfiecentral so I can see your creation!
