Decorating With Garland

I've found that garland is a cheap and easy way to decorate for the holidays.

 I got my garland at Michaels for 50% off, so it came to about $8.00.  

With one garland I was able to make:

A little wreath...

I just cut the length I needed and used a twist tie to secure it into the shape of a wreath and hung it with a striped ribbon.  It worked perfect for the chalkboard in my KITCHEN.

A swag for my entryway...

I cut two pieces the same size length and twisted it with a tie at the top and added a ribbon.

 

Decorations for my baskets...

I cut these smaller pieces and used metal twine from the dollar store to secure them to the baskets.

I also used one more garland to decorate my TREE...

A garland cut into smaller pieces goes a long way on your tree.

I even had some left to decorate my clock ...

I also added some greenery to my lanterns on our MANTLE...

This is a great time to purchase your garlands for next year because a lot of them start to go on clearance. 

It's amazing how many different items you can make with one strand of garland.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas!!
