Fall is an awesome time, full of leaves, pinecones, pumpkins and several holidays that we all love. It’s here and we need some décor to welcome it, and there’s nothing better than a garland. A garland is among the most traditional and popular decorations for every season and holiday. Rush to the shop to find garlands you like and welcome fall, or better make a couple of fall garlands for your home, for outdoors and indoors and for various occasions. They can be made of fabric, paper or some natural supplies like leaves, pinecones or acorns, most of them work for Thanksgiving and Halloween, too, and some of them can be used for winter holiday decor. Let’s have a look at the most popular ideas.
Fabric Garlands
Fabric is a very easy material to work with, and you can make lots of different banners and garlands using it. Cut fabric and make an easy fabric tie garland in the colors you like, or make tassels in fall colors and then attach them to a string.
