Add your link to an Instagram story
Copy your tree link
Open your tree at decomytree.link/create-tree and tap Copy next to your share link. It looks like decomytree.link/send-message?tree=ABCD2345.
Start a story
In Instagram, tap your profile picture or swipe right from the feed, then add a photo: a screenshot of your tree works well.
Add the Link sticker
Tap the sticker icon at the top, choose Link, paste your tree link and tap Done. Move the sticker where friends will see it, for example under your tree.
Share it and pin it
Post the story. Stories disappear after 24 hours, so add it to a Highlight on your profile to keep the link there until Christmas.
Put the link in your bio
- Go to your profile and tap Edit profile.
- Tap Links, then Add external link. Paste your tree link and give it a title such as “Deco my tree 🎄”.
- Save. The link stays in your bio until you remove it.
Close Friends, DMs and group chats
Want messages only from the people closest to you? Share the story to Close Friends, or paste the link into a DM or a group chat. Anyone who has the link can leave a message, so share it where you’re comfortable.
Share your tree on other apps
- TikTok: only some accounts can show a clickable link in their bio, so put your tree code in your bio or video caption instead. Friends type it at decomytree.link/send-message.
- WhatsApp: post the link to your status or paste it into chats.
- Snapchat: attach the link with the paperclip tool when you send a Snap or post a story.
- X and Facebook: paste the link into a post.
Friends can’t open the link?
- Check that the whole link was copied, including the code at the end.
- Open it in a browser. If the page doesn’t load inside Instagram, tap the ⋯ menu and open it in Safari or Chrome.
- Use the code. Friends can also type your 8-character tree code at decomytree.link/send-message.

Every account can use the Link sticker. If you don’t see it, update Instagram and try again; until then, write your tree code on the story instead.
How do I find my tree link again?
Open decomytree.link/create-tree and sign in with your email and password. Your link and tree code are at the top.
Do my friends need Instagram to leave a message?
No. The link opens in any browser, and friends need no app or account.
Can I share my tree on TikTok?
Yes. Put your tree code in your bio or video caption, and friends type it at decomytree.link/send-message.
