Holiday Garland Carolina Style
This was such a fun project. I wouldn’t have thought of this without the inspiration of the “Nester”. Thanks so much for hosting this “Show us your garland” day!
I used four strand of cheapo garland from Michaels for $1.99 each, and one full strand of grapevine that I already had. The center angel is actually a tree topper from Southern Living at Home (previous life).
I also added magnolia leaves and pine cones from my yard and fresh sprigs of sage and rosemary from my herb pots. I love birdhouses so had to have one on the mantel with some ornamental balls and feathers.
I filled this hurricane from Crate and Barrel with copper, gold, and silver ornaments to pick up the colors in my ribbon.
I followed the Nester’s advice and kept adding until I could barely fit another thing. I used every dried thing I had on hand. The last touch was a perfectly shaped seashell.
And that’s my garland, Carolina style.

Very pretty! I like your hurricane filled with the pretty gold and brown bulbs! You did a great job! :-) Merry Christmas!
I really like what you did with your garland and mantel and birdhouse and angel--it all looks great!
The ornaments look great in the jar! I might try that next year!
Merry Christmas!
