    I absolutely love how this looks! We always use garland on our mantle and hang our stockings. Since we don't put gifts in our stockings, it always bothered me that they were flat.... so, I started stuffing them with tissue paper. Now, they look so much better!

    Those cord bundlers are genius. Grand and Toy carries them, too. Heads up if using them on painted drywall for a long time (2 years for mine) mine tore the paint and paper off. When I moved my desk I installed them with screws--an easier fix. Your mantel looks beautiful!

    Thank you for the great advice. I have a corner mantel so I love this idea of mounting it on the front. I am going to use the basic command hooks and use several. I need to make sure the garland doesn't fall because it will be on a hot stove pipe. I have also used real pine cones and winterberries to my artificial garland as well.

    Any advice to securing a garland to a brick fireplace? Command hooks are either too light and fall off or too sticky and leave tape behind in all those cracks.

    • @thediymommy
      @thediymommy  6 місяців тому +4

      I would use something like these brick hooks with wire or string: a.co/d/4dlJ4eA

    Beautiful holiday deco ideas! I'm curious how you anchored your mirror above the mantel. I have a similar stone wall above my fireplace mantel and am having difficulty figuring out how to securely place a heavy mirror on my mantel. Any suggestions on how to secure it enough so that it will not tip forward and off the mantle if bumped? How is your mirror secured?

  • @juliebreyer8570
    @juliebreyer8570 6 місяців тому +1

    • @thediymommy
      @thediymommy  6 місяців тому

    • @thediymommy
      @thediymommy  6 місяців тому

      No, these ones don't (as long as the mantel has been painted properly).

    • @MyFocusVaries
      @MyFocusVaries 6 місяців тому

      ​@@thediymommyI just removed command loops that had been installed for 2 years, on painted drywall, and it tore the paint and paper off. Short term may be different.

    I have a much SIMPLER way to decorate your mantel. Measure your mantel, go to Home Depot and buy a piece of wood two inches shorter than your mantel, paint the wood the same color as your mantel. Using your staple gun, attach the garland to the wood, decorate the garland with lights making sure the plug is hanging on the same side as a plug. Set the decorated board on the mantel and add any decor you like to it. When the season is over, put the board in a big garbage bag and hang in a closet or garage. It is so much easier and every year the garland and lights are ready to be decorated. I have also made these for window sills. Happy Holidays

      @@2ysur2ysib My best time safer during the holidays was 15 years ago I had a house built and I ask the framers to measure all the eves and cut 1x2. I painted them the same color as the trim, wrote on the back of the wood where the location was and I staple gunned my lights to the wood. I installed bike hooks in the garage and stored them on the bike hooks in the top of the garage. I stall the light strips on the eves with with small hooks. It was brilliant and took about an hour to install a 2 story house. Your welcome. Merry Christmas and have a blessed new year

    Costco has nice prelit garlands that fit your requirements. I'm afraid command hooks are not strong enough to support the weight or will be too strong and peel off paint. The cord bundlers are sold out😫 . I may have to use regular command hooks and floral wire around the garland

    • @thediymommy
      @thediymommy  6 місяців тому +1

      Regular command hooks with yarn or wire work great! My garland is a heavy one from Costco and command hooks hold it.
