Christmas Garlands

Garland Christmas Decoration

Garlands have been used in Christmas decorating for many, many years and the sight of the traditional swags of foliage instantly injects a warm, festive glow into the hearts of all who see it. When the tradition began, people would chop down sections of trees and bring them into the house to adorn their fireplaces and walls. Nowadays, of course, this practice has fallen out of favour, mostly because it is frowned upon to go out into your local woodland and start hacking at trees, simply to decorate your home over the festive season. The tradition of placing garlands on walls and over fireplaces has very much remained the same, but, with a variety of artificial foliage options instead. There are a number of different garland styles available, many of them coming pre-decorated with items such as pine cones, berries and poinsettia flowers, so there's something to suit every seasonal decorative scheme.
