One of the easiest ways to decorate your home for the holidays is with garland. There are dozens of places where a string of natural greens looks fantastic in your home, whether it's going up the banister or framing a door. Garland does not have to be made from greens though; there are several other do-it-yourself ways to create gorgeous strands to accent your home. It is even a holiday project you can get your kids involved in! I remember growing up sitting at the kitchen table with a bowl of popcorn, cranberries and a needle and string in my hands making bets on who could make their garland the longest.
Today's tip of the day is a great gift idea for the children (and adults) in your family! A perfect hostess present for all of the holiday parties you'll be attending this year!
