Our curly gold and white Garland is 15 feet long and 2½ inches wide. This Garland consists of gold textured Foil strips that are curled into loops. The tops of the loops and the open ends have been sliced into very thin strips. This gives the Garland a delicate and very elegant look. Strips of shiny white, transparent plastic Tinsel have been added throughout the Garland for extra color and texture. Select this link to view our Decorated Country Holiday Garland.
Tips for hanging Artificial or Tinsel Garlands.
Artificial and Tinsel Garlands can accent windows, doorways, stairs, balconies and fire place mantels. The first thing you need to do is measure the area you want to cover. When measuring around windows and doors make sure you include the trim molding in your measurement. This way the Garland won’t get caught when you open the door or window. Measure your stair rail from the top to the bottom of the stairs. To make sure you have the right number of Garlands to wrap around the rail, double or triple your measurement, depending how tight you want the wrap to be. The looser you wrap, the longer the Garland will drape. Select this link to view our Hanging Metal Door Chimes.
A standard doorway is 83 inches from the top of the trim molding to the floor and 41 inches across, including the trim molding. One 9 foot strand of pine garland will stretch across the top of a standard doorway and the ends will hang a little more than a foot and a half below the door knob. One 12 foot strand of Tinsel Garland will stretch across the top of a standard doorway and the ends will hang down just below the door knob.

For a window that is 51 inches across and 51 inches tall, including the trim molding, a 12 foot strand of Tinsel Garland double swaged across the top will hang about three quarters of the way down each side. With a single swag the ends will hang almost to the window sill. A 9 foot strand of Artificial Pine Garland with a single swag will hang about half way down each side of the window.
