(Helpful Tip: Use tinsel that alternates color to plot when to change the shade of your ornaments.) Don\u2019t limit yourself to just sphere ornaments!

After my brother passed away, it didn&#8217;t feel right to get a tree without him. When we were ready, we decided to make a new tradition of getting the tree the day before #Christmas and decorating it however we wanted. (That way we didn&#8217;t have to see the ornaments that reminded us that he wasn&#8217;t with us anymore.) This year, all the trees were looking a little dead so I suggested we spray paint the tree! My Mother @ursula900 #MOMGOALS (who is an INCREDIBLY talented artist) lit up (dare I say it&#8230;like a Christmas tree) and screamed, &#8220;Let&#8217;s spray paint it #ombre!&#8221; Here&#8217;s the making of the #OmbreChristmasTree in real time! #robertsfamilyassemble #runselfierepeat #ArtistLife #art #christmasmiracle<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\">A video posted by Kelly Roberts (@kellykkroberts) on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2015-12-22T00:28:02+00:00\">Dec 21, 2015 at 4:28pm PST<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><script src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\" async=\"\" defer=\"defer\" type=\"mce-no\/type\"><\/script><strong>Paint Your Tree<\/strong><br \/>\n Yep, you can actually paint the branches of your Christmas tree. Although this may take a few cans of spray paint, the results are amazing! Just like any ombr\u00e9, start with the lightest at the top, but instead of doing the normal technique of moving your way down, go to the bottom and spray the darkest color. Finish the tree by spraying the middle with a combo of lighter to darker colors and touch up any missed spots. (Use a real tree for this season, or paint a fake tree to reuse for years to come!)<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 658px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-version=\"7\">\n<div style=\"padding: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background: #F8F8F8; line-height: 0; margin-top: 40px; padding: 50.0% 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;\"><\/div>\n<p><a style=\"color: #000; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/_Uj13BAGlB\/\" target=\"_blank\">Loving this tree! ? ? ? #christmas #christmastime #countdowntochristmas #roulfamilychristmas #colorfulchristmas #colorful #colourful #colourfulchristmas #ombrechristmastree #uniquechristmastree<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A photo posted by Tracy Roul (@castawaycollection) on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2015-12-15T17:42:51+00:00\">Dec 15, 2015 at 9:42am PST<\/time>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\" async=\"\" defer=\"defer\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Of course, if you really want to amp up the ombr\u00e9 look, you can combine both of these techniques for one seriously trendy tree!<\/p>\n<p>xx, The FabFitFun Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":"First hair, then nails, clothing, desserts, and now\u2026 Christmas trees?!
