Light weight works well on live trees.

Caution:
When using an air popper, make certain it has finished popping before removing the cover.
It make be silent for a minute or so but...

We did not have her Christmas decorations for some reason, she had moved to an apartment near my folks home. My little sister and young cousin came over to string popcorn and cranberries for the tree. We also made gingerbread men and frosted them for the tree. It was such a lovely simple way to celebrate the season. Wonderful memory. My sister passed away this year, thank you for the smiles, and a few tears.
