Kmart Mums are making amazing Christmas dinner table decorations with a $2 pool noodle

Looking for an amazing Christmas table centre piece that won’t cost the Earth?Well the clever ladies at the awesome Kmart Mums Australia Facebook group have come up with an ingenious hack that will 100% transform your festive dinner table – and it all involves a $2 pool noodle!

That’s right, in a new Christmas decorating trend sweeping Australia, mums are using the water toy to create inspired centrepieces that look like they’re worth hundreds of dollars.

Using the noodle as a base, the Facebook group mums cut it in half lengthways to create a flat base to sit on the table. They then wrap it in tinsel, foliage or even fairy lights and attach decorations using a $5 Kmart hot glue gun. Another variation involves only attaching coloured baubles to the noodle, to create a striking feature.

The best part? Anyone can do it and you can use any colour combination and totally customise the look to match your decor – with some mums even adding candles for an extra special touch.And with Kmart and other variety stores selling a huge range of decorations and baubles at bargain prices, it can be a very inexpensive option.‘I’m not craft AT ALL, but I’m really happy with my noodle hack,’ said one Kmart mum to the Facebook group. Said another: ‘My 7 year old & I had such a fun craft day creating this beauty. We used a hot glue gun and a pool noodle cut in half as the base. My kids collected and painted the pine cones.’Love it! For more inspiration, head over to Kmart Mums Australia’s Facebook group!
