But it seems she has plenty more on her plate now as she confirmed she is expecting her fifth child, which will be her third with husband Joe Swash.

As the residents of Pickle Cottage, including Stacey, her husband and former Eastenders star Joe Swash and their kids, Rose, Zach, Leighton and Rex prepare for a new baby, the Daily Star has pulled together some of their favourite decor from Stacey’s home.

‘Balls – any balls you have!’

Stacey’s latest Christmas decoration hack involved “any balls you have” and some glitter. The X Factor star nabbed £2.50 bouncy balls, paint spray and some glue to create the stylish yet festive décor.

Stacey’s oversized baubles are the perfect way to upcycle your kids’ old balls with low cost materials and look luxurious when bundled together as Stacey styled them.

While her followers loved the idea, many may be led to think husband Joe wasn’t too keen, as the DIY baubles are the “only balls [Stacey] wants for Christmas”.

Luxury light box

The TV host shared even more joy when she created a stunning Christmas present lightbox for only a fiver.

Stacey’s tutorial saw her use wooden chopsticks, some ribbon and sheer material to create the luxurious decoration that can light up the house.

Using a hot glue gun, Stacey created a box shape using the sticks of wood and the covered it with the sheer white material. Creating a small hole, she fed through string fairy lights and topped it off with a beautiful bow made from the ribbon.

The video has since gone viral, racking up a whopping 2.2 million views.

DIY Xmas glitter

Stacey enlisted the help of two common household ingredients for her next Christmas decoration hack.

Taking to her stories, Stacey explained that rather than buying pre-glittered flower and plant Christmas stems, her followers could make their own using old stems they may have collected year round.

The singer went on to create her own sparkly snow by mixing glitter, sugar and bicarbonate of soda, which she sprinkled onto the stems that she’d painted spray glue onto.

Fancying her creation, Stacey wrote: “I think I might keep them like this after Christmas, they’re better than before”.

Festive gnomes

Stacey shared a snap of her glorious kitchen sink which she’d already sprinkled her Christmas magic onto.

Perching her two Christmas gnomes by the window sill, Stacey placed mini fir trees around the sink and an adorable set of white mini houses. The decorations fit in perfectly with the Pickle Cottages white kitchen and gold taps.

Teasing her followers with more craft content, Stacey wrote on the snap: “Happy Monday everyone … All the pickles are at school and I’m shooting from home today,” before adding a star-eyed emoji. “I honestly can’t wait to show you this one”.

Traditional favourite

Keeping up with Christmas tradition, Stacey crowned her door with an incredible Christmas wreath.

Sticking with her upcycling pattern, Stacey showed her 5.4 million followers that they could easily make a wreath using an old one from the autumn season.

She then uploaded another video decorating the wreath with bits of eucalyptus and white berries before topping it off with a gold bell and a bow.
