Garland Christmas decoration ideas include arranging garlands on doorways, railings of the staircases, balconies, table and mantle edges and even at the altars. Garland decoration can make your Christmas tree look unique and different. Straight or diagonal line arrangement for garlands is 'out' these days and natural curves of the trees and gentle swags are 'in'. Here, we will give you tips on decorating Christmas tree with garlands:
  • You will need about ten feet of garlands for one foot of tree.
  • Any extra garlands can be used as wreaths and for decorating other things in the venue such as church door, altar, front door of the home and mantle. You can even use them to make your gift packaging look special.
  • Arrange garlands according to the natural twists and turns of the trees or in gentle swags.
  • If your Christmas tree is very large, you can place garlands in deep swags for a graceful look.
  • For decorating the evergreen tree, first install lights, then garlands and finally the ornaments and other decorations.
  • You can choose a combination of garlands too. The widest one sags deeply than thinner ones. You may double or triple the garlands according to your choice.
  • Secure the garland using wires and ribbons and make sure that branches to which you attach them can bear their weight.
  • You can also place garlands vertically, twisting and turning them according to the shape of the tree branches.
