Stacey Solomon has been busy getting in the festive spirit and is slowly giving Pickle Cottage a full Christmas makeover ready for December. <\/p>\n

The Loose Women panellist, 34, who has shared a gushing tribute to husband Joe Swash, took to Instagram on Sunday afternoon to unveil her latest Christmas crafty hack, after recently creating her own 'bells'. <\/p>\n

Using only red velvet ribbon and double sided sticky tape, Stacey completely transformed the doors inside her stunning family home, making them look like they'd been gift wrapped. <\/p>\n

"Christmas up the doors with me," Stacey captioned a clip of her getting to work on decorating the doors. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

She jokingly added: "I got showered in between if you're wondering why I'm in two different outfits," with a laughing emoji. <\/p>\n

Mum-of-five Stacey could be seen sticking two lines of double sided tape vertically on the door, before draping a piece of thick red ribbon down the door. She then repeated this horizontally, creating a cross shape on the door. <\/p>\n

Stacey added a red bow to the centre of the cross, before her adorable son Rex, four, arrived in the video to hand his mum a pair of gold bells. Stacey added the bells to the underneath of the bow, completing her festive door display.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Unveiling the finished product, Stacey told her fans: "I'm slowly but surely bringing Christmas into the house. One ribbon at time," with a laughing emoji. <\/p>\n

"This was so easy & so cheap just a roll of thick ribbon & some double sided tape. But it's so effective I think," she added. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Stacey's latest creation comes after she was left in stitches following her followers' unamused reaction to one of her Christmas crafts. <\/p>\n

Struggling to contain her laugher, the Loose Women panellist said: "I've woken up this morning to a lot of you messaging me saying 'Stace, your Christmas bells are s**t!'" as she burst out laughing.<\/p>\n

She added: "I'm laughing because I thought they were really good." The star continued to giggle through her chat as she referenced back to her latest online festive craft, which involved spray painting a children's bouncing toy gold, and painting details onto it to turn it into a large decorative bauble.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

She said: "I was like 'yeah, smashed it again.' I thought I'd made some amazing Christmas bells and you lot are like 'what is that Stacey? It's s**t.' It's really tickled me.<\/p>\n

"Look I think this is a really good lesson to learn – beauty is in the eye of the beholder, for one – clearly! And two, not every craft's a winner. Not every craft looks amazing at the end of it. And a lot of you say to me, 'ah, if I made that it would look rubbish, why do you make everything look so nice?' Well, I don't!"<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
