Description
This Christmas garland is a 180cm artificial Norfolk pine garland with dense, realistic needles on a bendable core, for $33.57. Drape it along a mantel, run it down the centre of the Christmas table or wind it around a banister, then add your own lights and baubles.
Fresh pine garland drops needles, dries out within a week in an Australian December and costs more every year. An artificial pine garland gives you the same full, layered look without the mess, and it goes back in the box for next Christmas. The branches bend and hold their shape, so you can fluff it out for a thick mantel swag or keep it flat for a table runner.

Why This Artificial Garland Works
-
Full from the box - dense needles mean you do not need to double it up to hide the core.
-
Bendable - shape it around a banister, over a doorway or along a mantel and it stays put.
-
No needle drop - no vacuuming, no sap and no browning by Boxing Day.
-
Reusable - fold it loosely back into the box and use it again next year.
-
A base for lights - thread a battery fairy light string through the branches for an evening glow.
How Long Should a Christmas Garland Be for a Mantel?
Measure the mantel and add 30 to 50cm at each end if you want the garland to drape down the sides. A 180cm garland suits most mantels of 120 to 150cm with a short drop at each end, or sits flat along a longer mantel. For a staircase, allow the length of the handrail plus about 30 percent for the swags between the posts, and join two or three garlands end to end by overlapping and twisting the branches together.
How Do You Make an Artificial Garland Look Fuller?
Start by bending every branch outward and alternating the direction so the garland is round rather than flat. Then layer: tuck in a ribbon that runs the full length, add pinecones or baubles at even spacing, and finish with a light string. If you want a very thick swag for a feature mantel, twist two garlands together before you start decorating.
Can You Use a Pine Garland as a Table Runner?
Yes. Laid flat, 180cm runs the length of a six-seat dining table, and the green works under white crockery, gold accents or a red tablecloth. Keep candles in holders that lift the flame well clear of the needles, or use LED candles - the garland is plastic and must be kept away from open flames.
Buyers are typically people dressing a mantel or staircase for Christmas, hosts setting a Christmas table, stylists who want a greenery base for lights and baubles, and anyone replacing a fresh garland that keeps dropping needles.
