Decorating is Always in Season
In the busy-ness the holiday season tends to cultivate, it’s often challenging to make time to order new decor. Even though you ended the previous year packing ornaments away swearing you’d have a new theme by the next. Trust me, I get it!
If you’re just beginning to decorate this year or even if everything is out, there is always time to freshen up the holiday look in your home and/or workspace.
First thing’s first.. Keep your old decor and incorporate the new. Don’t feel obligated to buy all-the-things every year and overwhelm yourself with a complete do-over when you can add to and enhance what you currently have. (Hey.. if you’re set on clearing out the old and starting with new, I can help you there, too!! Don’t feel forced to do that every year.)
I will also help you reinvent your decor and add magic to it ✨
Let’s start with garland. And don’t worry, all of these items arrive super fast from Amazon!
Begin by selecting a doorway, mantle or top of a cabinet. Measure the length of your wall, furniture piece or mantel of preference, then calculate one-and-a-half times that dimension. (Example: 6-ft. wide mantel x 1.5 = 9 feet of garland.) I always add 2 extra pieces of 6 ft of garland to my cart for the side pieces hanging down.
Make sure to order the same length of both the evergreen AND eucalyptus to achieve the full, natural look you see pictured.
Select 3-4 of your favorite ribbon (links to my personal favorites below).

This is for 2-6ft pieces.
This is the one I actually bought - a box of 4 pieces. I thought it was the best deal!
Eucalyptus Garland
This is the eucalyptus garland that I use in all the garlands. I wrap it around all the base garlands.
