You decorated your Christmas tree wrong! The influencer is causing a sensation by claiming that most people don’t know how to hang balloons properly
A woman has brought TikTok to a standstill by demonstrating the ‘correct’ way to hang baubles on a Christmas tree – claiming the vast majority of people are doing it wrong.
The 11-second clip was shared by a female TikToker from Florida who goes by the moniker @sunshinethedoggo and quickly garnered over 42,000 likes and hundreds of comments.
Instead of hanging the baubles individually, the decoration involves tying them together in groups of four or five before attaching them to the tree.
The woman recommends using a pipe cleaner or flexible wire to connect different sized balls, saying “it looks a lot better” hanging from branches.
Her new technique caused a sensation among the audience. While one praised the method, writing: “This is brilliant!!!”, another person explained: “My tree is full of memories. Holiday or special occasion decorations. It’s not about aesthetics.”

The TikTok video titled Ornament Hack For Your Christmas Tree begins with the words “Common Mistakes”.
The advice “Don’t hang ornaments like this” appears alongside a picture of a single rainbow bauble hanging from a tree.
“Do this instead: Group a few ornaments on a piece of pipe cleaner,” it continues as the decorator strings the beads together to create a cluster.
The woman places the largest ornament in the center, and on the sides – smaller ones, in which white, silver and gold shades are combined.
She then secures the noose by tying the pipe cleaner at the top before placing it on a tree branch, claiming “it looks so much better”.

The finished product seems to create a fuller look on the Christmas tree.
Many viewers flocked to praise the woman for sharing the hack, with one commenting: “This is brilliant!!!”
Another agreed, writing: “Very clever idea.”
While another person said, “I’ll try it! It looks beautiful.”
Someone else wrote: “Such a game changer.”
Another person agreed, saying, “Very nice! Here’s how I do mine too. I like the full tree”
However, others were less impressed and preferred the traditional way of decorating the trees.
One simply wrote, “No thanks.”
Another explained: “My tree is full of memories. Holiday or special occasion decorations. It’s not about aesthetics.”
Meanwhile, one person quipped: “Pipe cleaner? Let me just go back to the 50s.
And someone else added: “Who needs it when you have a kid who wanted to decorate it himself, so it’s already a mess.”
One viewer, who regretted not watching the video earlier, admitted: “I put my tree up yesterday or I would have done it.”
