5 Garland Ideas to Spruce Up Your Home This Christmas
Quintessential festive decor.
No Christmas decor is complete with a little festive greenery in the shape of a garland. Ideal for displaying across a mantle, around a staircase banister or artfully laid out on the Christmas dinner table, explore these five Christmas garland ideas to find the perfect festive style for you.
1. Garlands That Sparkle and Shine
Twinkling lights are the epitome of Christmas and the overall holiday season. Lights add a festive touch to pretty much anything – including your garland. Pre-lit garlands combined with a few pinecones on your mantel make for the perfect lush, sparkling arrangement to elevate your living room this December. If you're looking for a garland idea that brings the wow factor, adding pre-lit garlands to your cabinets will create a striking focal point.
Why leave baubles and ornaments to the Christmas tree when you can adorn your holiday garlands with their own? If you’re looking for that extra addition to spice up your festive decor this season, ornamented garlands are the perfect idea for you. The differently coloured baubles help break up the monotony of a traditional garland. The best part? You don’t have to worry about layering and manually placing ornaments on your garland. Instead, you can purchase a garland that’s pre-assembled for a hassle-free and fun decorating experience.
Flocked garlands are the perfect festive addition to your living room decor, especially if your space primarily consists of neutral accents. These snow-covered garlands will help to accentuate your space's rustic style while still adding greenery and festive vibe. For an unconventional garland idea, use a flocked garland as a centrepiece for your dining table – it's a great way to add a touch of nature to your table.
Glitter and sparkle always adds a dramatic emphasis to any space, especially during the festive season. Glittered Christmas garlands with gold baubles and other metallic accents are the perfect way to deck up your living space in seasonal style. The touch of sparkle complements the green garland and other Christmas decor extremely well, while still making for a beautiful statement piece.
A cosy bedroom can look cosier and more festive with an evergreen garland draped on your headboard or hung behind your bed. While some people may be skeptical about the aroma of cedar or boxwood being too strong for the bedroom, we have just the solution for you. Real touch artificial garlands do the job just right without leaving an overpowering scent, simply providing a festive decorative accent. The added bonus? These garlands won’t leave any mess.
