I DIYed a ‘Christmas present topiary’ for my house – people say I’m out of control & compare me to Martha May Whovier
A STYLE enthusiast has shown off her design skills with a DIY present topiary for her home.
Some people said she was out of control, while others praised her for her resemblance to a popular character from a Christmas classic film.
Macy Blackwell (@macy.blackwell) shows unique ways to amp up your holiday home decor.
In a TikTok video, she showed viewers how she created a fun decorative statement piece for inside and outside your house.
The blonde beauty began the construction process in her home as she wore a white crewneck hoodie, light wash jeans, and Uggs.
First, she cemented a six-foot stick in a flower pot and let it harden in place.
She then found three large boxes that were 18x18, 16x16, and 12x12 in size.
Next, she covered them in wrapping paper but suggested that Christmas-colored tablecloths were also a good choice.
Macy then showed viewers how she stacked three different boxes on top of each through a hole in each.
At the end of the video, she swapped out her casual attire for a Mrs. Claus-themed look, complete with a red dress with white feathers and black boots.
The stacked presents blended well with her outdoor decorations which included large ornaments and a large reindeer statue.
"They went perfect with our Christmas Eve-themed porch!" she wrote in the video caption.
