Christmas is just around the corner and if you’re hosting this year, you might be looking for the perfect table centerpiece. Introducing the kmart pool noodle Christmas hack that’ll transform your table setting into a joyful explosion of colour.
Kmart fans always love a good hack and this Christmas season is no exception. Very clever mums have begun turning a pool noodle into an incredible Christmas table centerpiece, using a $2 pool noodle from Big W or Kmart, a hot glue gun and baubles.
Sharing the hack to Facebook, one woman wrote: “First time hack pretty pleased with the result!”
While she picked up most of her Christmas decorations from Kmart, Big W and Target, any old decorations you have at home can be put to use.
