I spent the worst week ever assembling the viral beaded Christmas tree… so now you can avoid the same mistake. 😉

I went in expecting a cute, retro-inspired Christmas tree and came out questioning all my life choices 😭 (and I LOVE crafts). Let’s just say Amazon really catfished me on this one, so let me save you the time, money, and emotional damage!

Here’s my final version:

Compare that to the Amazon version… am I wrong??

These aren’t even the same beads as the image or the video! And it’s tiiiiiiiinnnnnny (oh, and infuriating to build since the beads are way smaller 😂). Sorry, Amazon. Huge fail.

If that’s not enough proof – watch this 🤦🏻‍♀️

These Amazon deals are 100% vetted and NOT a fail! ➡️

    I hope you wrote a scathing review. This is definitely a case of bait and switch by the company. I know how annoying and disappointing it is to put your time and money into something that doesn’t turn out.
