5 Kinky Uses for Christmas Tinsel

5 Kinky Uses For Christmas Tinsel

Are you a fan of tinsel at Christmas? As soon as our collection comes down from the loft, I’m hit with a wave of nostalgia at its unique scent. As I’m focusing on ‘sexing up’ Christmas across a few blog features this year, my mind turned to how tinsel could be used in a sensual and erotic way. In this feature I’ll be sharing my ideas for 5 kinky uses for Christmas tinsel – perhaps changing how you look at this seemingly innocent festive adornment forever!

We love a bit of tinsel sparkling on the tree at Christmas, but did you know that tinsel has a long history – dating back to 1610? Tinsel was originally lightweight fabric which incorporated shiny metals such as silver and gold, and these fabrics were used in the production of aristocratic & royal clothing as well as heraldic banners and flags. Between the 19^th and 20^th century, tinsel was used to adorn Christmas trees, as the metallic element reflects the candlelight on the tree and evokes connotations of a starry sky.

Modern tinsel is made from PVC and has a shiny coating. It’s lightweight and looks gorgeous glistening around the tree or brightening up other areas of your home through the holidays. How could you incorporate tinsel into your kinky couple’s play? Read on to discover my suggested 5 kinky uses for Christmas tinsel:

Lay tinsel through the house as a sexy surprise treasure trail

Use tinsel to lay a trail and direct your partner when they get home from work, to eventually reveal a sexy surprise awaiting them. It could be a hot gift to share together or you, awaiting their erotic attentions dressed in something appropriately festive and raunchy!

Trim your favourite lingerie with tinsel for festive foreplay fun

Festive-up your erotic foreplay by treating yourself and your partner to you dressed in your favourite lingerie set – trimmed with tinsel. The sparkle against a low-lit boudoir backdrop will add glamour and glitz, and the sensation of the tinsel against your skin is sure to tease and arouse – as well as looking seasonally sensational.

Fashion sexy lingerie made from tinsel

You could go the whole festive hog and use tinsel as lingerie! Fashion a raunchy string bikini-style set from glittering tinsel. You could team with hot lacy top stockings and a confident attitude to seasonally sashay your way to an explosive sex session this Christmas.

If you’re especially kinky, you could delve into a little Forniphilia. Treat your partner as the Christmas tree and decorate them, draping tinsel around their naked body and perhaps converting some nipple clamps into bauble decorations… Let your kinky creativity run wild!

Use tinsel as a sensual play tickler

By its very nature, tinsel makes for a fantastic sensual play accessory. The multitude of lightweight strands act as a teasing, arousing body tickler to ramp up your foreplay sessions through the holidays. Light some candles, relax and get yourselves into a sexy mood by taking turns to tease with the fine strands of tinsel before neither of you can hold back from more.

Trim your bed with tinsel and enjoy hot ‘Santa’s sleigh’ role play

Whether you’re a long-time fan of bedroom role play or you’re ready to try it for the first time, Christmas is a great opportunity to spice things up. Trim your bed with tinsel, adding a strand of fairy lights if you like, and enjoy some ‘fucking in Santa’s sleigh’ role play with your partner.

Tinsel Safety Tips

It’s tempting to use tinsel as a bondage restraint but I’d advise against using it as bondage rope or hand/wrist cuffs. Tinsel is deceptively strong and difficult to break in an emergency, and it can easily tighten to dangerous levels around your partner’s body or limbs. Never use it around your lover’s neck.

Instead, just use Christmas tinsel in the ways I’ve suggested above, in this feature – or in other completely safe ways you discover for yourselves. You can use tinsel to decorate safe and tested bondage restraints or one of your own bondage collars, rather than using tinsel AS the collar or restraints. The extra tickliness of the tinsel adorning the restraints will arouse and tease while they writhe deliciously in their Christmas captivity.

At the start of this feature, you may have been thinking, “Tinsel? For sex?” I hope I’ve shown you that yes, tinsel can be used to spice up your love life through the Christmas period! Tinsel can be a fun and creative addition to your holiday season playtime, revealing a world of pleasure potential.

Wishing you all an erotic holiday season, full of sensual warmth, Christmas kink and tinsel-tastic orgasms.
