There’s something magical about the way holiday greenery transforms a space. Whether draped across a mantel, wound around a banister, or trailing down the center of a table, artificial evergreens bring a festive, nostalgic touch that makes us all want to deck the halls and raise a cup of cocoa to the season.
The Look and Feel of Real Cedar
Nothing captures that feeling quite like the soft texture of cedar. With its delicate needles and natural green hue, it evokes the charm of a horse-drawn carriage ride through a snowy, wooded path. An Afloral Artificial Cedar Garland brings that same timeless beauty to your home — without the shedding or short lifespan of fresh boughs. It’s a piece you’ll reach for year after year, a simple way to wrap your home in lasting holiday warmth.
How to Hang a Cedar Garland
On the Mantel:
Lay the cedar garland across the mantel and let the soft tips naturally spill over the edge. Layer in accents for the season — pinecones and red berries for winter, or soft magnolias for spring — to create a look that feels fresh and effortless year-round.
Holiday Tables:
For holiday dinners, create a lush table runner by laying the cedar garland down the center of the table. Add seasonal touches to your centerpiece — metallic candlesticks, faux fruit branches, or classic Christmas blooms — for a look that feels both elegant and inviting.
Around the Banister:
Wind the garland along your staircase railing for an instant upgrade that brings warmth and charm to your holiday home. Tie on velvet ribbons or mix in additional seasonal greenery to create a rich, textured evergreen statement that feels both classic and elevated.
Decorate the Front Porch:
Frame your entryway with cedar garland for a grand, welcoming touch. Guests will be greeted by the beauty of everlasting forest greens as they step into your home. Just be sure the space is covered, as this piece is best suited for sheltered outdoor use.
Event Styling:
The rich green tone and natural movement make the faux cedar garland a favorite for winter weddings and holiday celebrations alike. Style it on ceremony arches, drape it across bar tops, or weave in twinkling lights to illuminate windows and mantels. Its full, wired construction makes it easy to shape, secure, and style for more elaborate designs.
Styling Tips
- Fluff each branch after unboxing to bring the garland to life. For a full, natural look, gently bend and alternate the direction of the sprigs as you go. Take your time so the piece feels full and natural.
- Secure the garland carefully to prevent sagging or shifting once it’s in place. If you’re styling a mantel, make sure it doesn’t hang too close to the fireplace opening for both safety and longevity. Keep it away from open flames or direct heat sources.
- Layer accents throughout the garland to make the look your own. Afloral’s Deluxe Cedar Garland is a timeless staple you can style in countless ways season after season — with fresh pinecones, faux berries, ribbons, or ornaments. Even a high-end piece like this shines a little brighter with your personal touch.
A Timeless Favorite You’ll Keep Coming Back To
Afloral Cedar Garlands are crafted from durable, high-quality materials that hold their color and texture season after season. Because they’re artificial, you can enjoy them year after year — no shedding needles, no drying out, and no post-holiday cleanup. Each garland is a permanent botanical piece designed to bring elevated beauty to your holiday styling again and again. When the season ends, simply store it in a cool, dry place, and it will be just as lush and full when you bring it out next year. Made to last, this greenery keeps your home feeling fresh and welcoming through every celebration.
