1. Set Up the Base
Start by selecting an expandable shower curtain rod. Place it at chest level between a door arch, ensuring it's secure but not overly tight.
2. Wrap the Garland
Grab a packet of garland ties.
Secure the longer garland to the shower curtain rod with the garland ties.
Wrap it loosely around the rod. Don't worry if some white is showing – it will be covered later.
If you come to the end of the garland add another one and secure it with a tie.
3. Add Volume
Now, take the larger garland and start wrapping it around the rod to create a fuller look. Use another garland tie to secure it, allowing it to drape loosely.
Let it hang over each side by about 12 inches.
4. Illuminate with Fairy Lights
Before adding more decorations, wrap fairy lights around the garland. If needed, use two sets of lights.
Ensure the lights reach the bottom of the hanging garland for a cohesive look.
5. Ornaments and Accents
Thread cherries or beads onto the garland, keeping it loose for a whimsical effect.
Create clusters of ornaments by stringing a few on a pipe cleaner.
Secure them sporadically around the garland.
6. Poinsettias, Ribbons, and Final Touch
Now, add some oversized poinsettias to the garland, placing them where they complement the overall look.
Finish off by securing an extra-large ribbon in the middle, adding a bold and festive accent.
Now slide it up to the top of the arch and tighten it.
