How to make a hanging floral garland

It’s the time again! Christmas and family times and I just love it. I only hope that this year, there can be a bit more thought put into peace & love globally.
I was going to go the traditional route this year with my decorating ideas and then thought WHY DON’T I CREATE DESIGNS that could be used for more than one event? On the channel there are many ways to make wreaths, table flowers, Christmas decorations etc, but I haven’t done much with garlands. Super easy to create and you really don’t need much to visually say a lot.
The first in this year’s line-up is a really pretty, mixed media garland of roses, hydrangeas, ivy & berries & to bring a touch of light and sparkle, gorgeous jewelled fairy or twinkle lights & for visual interest, clear glass or plastic baubles filled with dried floral potpourri.
Things to gather -
- Piece of doweling or wooden railing in a length to suit.
- Screw in hooks & eyes.
- Staple gun or cable ties.
- Rope, chain or fishing line to hang garland once completed.
- Ivy trails, rose garlands, berries, hydrangeas, battery power twinkly fairy lights, floral petal potpourri to fill the glass or plastic baubles.

I'm sorry, I just thought I'd give you all a wee break. I'm back, relaxed & refreshed & can't wait to share new things. If I'm too be honest, I missed you guys too. Felt very odd not to be thinking... what would they love to see. Cheers & warm regards Astar

So glad you’re back for the holidays!!! I agree that Christmas can be “nontraditional”! In fact, I think it’s time the holidays weren’t so cold-climate oriented! This is lovely, and definitely looks versatile 💐 Hope you’re having a beautiful holiday season!!!

Hi Jesse, I just love this type of designing & mixing it up so that the base can be used for other events throughout the year. CHRISTMAS is at our place this year & I so need to stop mucking around & focus on the menu! Very warm regards Astar
