Thank you, I am working on a solution.

I would recommend using a colour attribute, so that the baubles only display where the vertex paint is. Create a colour attribute and paint red where you want the baubles. Here is a sample nodetree:

No problem, hopefully that helps.

painting the tree is little difficult, the branches of tree are curves, maybe there is option to instance on end of curves?

I am not at my PC right now, but I will take a look later and see what I can do.

For now, have you tried using a smaller or larger brush size, that might help you. Currently a vertex paint or a weight paint is the only thing I can think of (both of them are very similar, so you will likely have the same issue with a weight paint.)

Hello there,
I have been looking into this, I can’t find a way of doing what you need without a vertex paint. Somebody else might know of a better way, but I can’t work out how to get it only instancing on the end of the curves, without manually painting them.
