I love white lights with green garland, to me nothing is more magical! To highlight my large bay window with window seat, I strung garland using floral wire thus allowing the garland to look draped over the valance. Gold ribbon was also used to give the garland the look of elegance!
I then carried the ribbon straight onto the Christmas tree! I adorned the tree with white lights, red ornaments and poinsettias. A lovely firelplace and mantle with more lights, ribbon and garland, gives a warm feeling to my living room!
