On Instagram she posted a sweet compilation video which showed the unique way it was put together.
The Loose Women panellist said she always wanted a tree made of pampas grass, but this year that wish has become a reality.
Although the former I'm A Celeb winner initially chose a basic white plastic tree, she uploaded a fast motion video which saw her family muck in with the pampas branches to help.
It was all hands on deck for her kids as they tried to assist the star in compiling the standout shrub as they prepared to decorate their country home for the holidays.

Stacey, 33, captioned the video: "⭐️ And The Tree Is Up ⭐️ I Finally Made My Dream Christmas Tree 😭 I’ve been dreaming about this b***min tree for years 😂."
Stacey also said how she even had help from her neighbours to make her wish become a reality.
She explained: "I never had enough pampas to make one! This year my lovely neighbour said I could trim his pampas bush 😂 and use it to make my tree.
"I had to hunt and borrow from anyone and everywhere to fill it there’s not one vase left in my house with anything in it 🤣 It took so much more than I’d realised and at times I thought I’d NEVER fill every gap but I finally did it!"

She added: "I’m so proud of it and in love with it Looking forward to hoovering under it every day until the big man arrives! 😂 Now to add baubles or not to add baubles that is the question! 🤍 Happy December Everyone ⭐️."
Stacey, 33, is no stranger to DIY and she often shows off her creative skills.
She recently shared a brilliant hack, using paper bags to create stunning snowflake decorations.
The mum-of-four took to TikTok to film herself and her son Rex creating their paper snowflakes.
Stacey, who is married to Joe Swash, uploaded her clip to her account with the caption ‘❄️ Paper Snowflakes ❄️ The EASIEST but PRETTIEST craft ever!"
Within a day of the video posting, it racked up a whopping 260.3k views.
This will be the former reality star's second Christmas in their £1.2 million home, dubbed 'Pickle Cottage', which she shares with her husband Joe Swash.
The 31-year-old revealed the exciting news they had found their £1.2million "forever home" back in March of 2021.
But the DIY queen has since totally transformed the property, which includes her new ";cosy corner" as she continues to makeover the Essex property.
