One of my absolute favorite things to do is hang my garland up on my mantle to prepare for the holidays. It typically is one the first things I do, and this year she was up nice and early. I wanted to create something new this year, unique and different that what I have seen before. You either love it or hate it, but so far I think it’s mostly loved. 😉

I first laid the garland out on the floor to develop my look and make sure it would work, and from there it took off. I used my favorite cedar garland. This is year #3 for this garland and she is sure my favorite. I used 2 on each side, and one folded garland for the center droop.

I began hanging the garland using my handy command strap hooks, these work great and are damage free. Linked here!

I used command hooks to hang the stockings and used fishing line to lower them and give a staggered look. Bells and ribbon are new this year for this space and couldn’t love them more!
