A woman has created homemade Christmas tree ornaments – and was instantly met with ridicule for their ‘NSFW’ look.
Natalia Landaluce, 36, is an interior designer who regularly shares her latest creations online, and, in the run-up to the festive season, she posted a clip of her DIY Christmas decorations.
But the post quickly went viral – for all the wrong reasons.

Instead of seeing the delicate crystals that Natalia had intended, viewers quickly flooded the comments section claiming the decor looked like “semen”.
In the clip video, which has been viewed 10 million times, Natalia makes icicle Christmas tree decorations using hot glue.
But the long, thin shape of the milky-white ornaments left users in stitches.
“The inspiration was the glass ornaments that are super ‘in’ – well, they’ve been ‘in’ for a couple of years now, but I think they’re about 10 bucks per ornament,” Natalia, who lives in Ecuador, told Need To Know.
“I was trying to just show something that optically looks like that, but it’s not.
“In person, it looks amazing, but for some reason I think that the clips that I showed of the making are the wrong ones because they look kind of suspicious…”
The decorations received a huge reaction online, with many people quick to comment that they didn’t look as innocent as intended.
One person commented: “Tis the semen” and a second joked: “Santa has come and gone.”
Someone else quipped: “Oh cum all ye faithful.”
“Oh man I am so glad the comments agreed with my first thought,” said one viewer.
Another person wrote: “Oh jizzmas tree oh jizzmas tree.”
The comments continued, with one person asking: “Who is gonna tell her?”
“Jizz the season to be jolly,” joked one viewer, while another said: “Ah. It appears Santa’s sack is now empty.”
Someone else added: “Christmas came early…several times, in fact.”
Meanwhile, another joker added: “This tree needs a towel, not a star.”
Natalia found the online reaction hilarious, too.
She said: “I don’t care – if I did care, I would have just deleted the video many, many days ago.
“But I think it’s great – first of all, it’s engagement, second, not everyone’s gonna like what I do all the time.
“And if I am the reason, because of a post that I did, that over 10 million people are laughing and sharing in, and just commenting, then amazing.
“I think it’s funny and I think of myself as a very, very creative person so it’s amazing to see another creative person having creativity in the comments so I don’t know – I think it’s fine, I don’t care.”
