Christmas Garland Greenery Ideas

Article by Melissa at the Inspired Room

Fresh greenery is one of my favorite things to decorate with for the holidays! It’s such a simple and natural way to make a house feel festive. I actually use mostly faux garland since it lasts so much longer and is far less messy, but I love to add at least a little real greenery from our yard or garden center. I am planning to put fresh cedar garland around my kitchen window this year!

While I prefer to not buy or store a lot of holiday decorations, I find faux greenery to be worth the investment because it can be used from November all through the winter. Plus it’s so versatile and doesn’t go out of style!

I hope you enjoy today’s post and inspiration!

Last year we hung this faux garland over our living room/dining room doorway. We’ll be doing this again this year!
