Christmas garlands and wreaths are versatile pieces of décor you can use throughout your home. They instantly add warmth and cheer to any space, such as doors, mantels, and staircases.

In this video, designer Jennifer Lutz demonstrates how easy it is to decorate Christmas garlands and wreaths. Watch how she transforms our BH FRASER FIR® GARLAND AND WREATH into three different looks and read on for our step-by-step instructions.

BEFORE GETTING STARTED: FLUFF YOUR ARTIFICIAL CHRISTMAS WREATHS AND GARLANDS

Before styling, take time to fluff artificial greenery to get the volume and fullness you want. Make them look their best with these quick tips:

  1. Place your wreath or garland on a flat surface. When fluffing a garland, make sure to straighten out its spine.
  2. Hold the foliage in place using one hand. With your other hand, individually spread branch tips up and out away from the frame. Begin from the bottom tips and work your way up.
  3. Temporarily hang each item on a vertical surface within easy reach, such as a banister. This makes it easier to spot any gaps and adjust tips until you get the shape you want. When you're done fluffing, your greenery is ready for display.

Insider's Tip

Once your wreaths and garlands are shaped for the first use, it will be easier to achieve the same full look in future years.
