WHAT DO YOU NEED TO HANG HOLIDAY GARLAND?

Once you have everything you need to begin this project, then you are ready to go!

STEPS TO HANG HOLIDAY GARLAND ON A MANTEL

The first step is to hang the garland. I start with Command™ Small Wire Hooks.

1. ADHERE COMMAND HOOKS

Use the first set of garlands. Take one garland and hook the end to the center hook and then create your drape.

2. HANG FIRST SET OF GARLANDS

Now take your other set of garlands and wrap and tuck the end into the center hook on the mantel to secure it.

3. HANG SECOND SET OF GARLANDS

Use Command™ Small Wire Hooks and place one on each end just a couple of inches in from the hooks holding the garlands.

4. HANG BELLS ON EACH END.

You can use flowers, greenery, or glittery picks. Whatever you like to make it more full and add in some dimension.

5. PLACE FLORAL PICKS

Use ribbons for your garland to dress it up. I like to use a ribbon that has wired sides so it holds its shape a little better.

6. NEXT ADD IN RIBBON

These beautiful silver glitter leaves are large and easy to break apart. I cut smaller pieces with a wire cutter and tucked them throughout the garland.

7. ADD GLITTERY ACCENT PICKS
