Different Ways to Attach Garland to a Staircase
During Christmas, and maybe other times of the year, you might want to attach garland to your staircase.
You can use simple undecorated garland that you can decorate exactly the way you want, or you can purchase predecorated garland that already has the lights, ribbons, and/or ornaments attached to make your decorating job much faster and easier.
Also consider making your own garland out of living evergreen branches.
The undecorated garland can be decorated with Christmas lights, ribbons, bows, ornaments, live greenery, stockings, wreaths, and other accessories that make the garland look much fuller and festive.
You can even add to the predecorated garland to personalize it and make it even more dramatic.
Bottom of the Spindles
One of the most out-of-the-way places to put garland is at the bottom of your stair spindles.
This method allows staircase users to use the handrail without interfering with the garland, which is very important if you have children, disabled people, or elderly people using the stairs.
Just Below the Handrail
If you prefer your garland higher up, you can attach it just below the handrail.
People using the staircase will still be able to use the handrail without disturbing the garland.
This method uses about the same amount of garland as the first method. You may require more garland if you decide to let the ends fall to the floor.
Wrapped Around the Handrail
Many people like to wrap their garland around their handrail.
While this method looks nice, the main problem is that it prohibits people from using the handrail.
This method uses slightly more garland than the 2 methods above because the handrail is thicker than the stair spindles.
Deep Swag
A designer favorite way of adding garland to a staircase is to use a deep swag.
The top point of each swag is a perfect place to put a big bow.
This method allows for most of the handrail to be usable and is a more dynamic way to decorate because of the curved shapes.
Long and Shallow Swag
Similar to the method above, the long and shallow swag is a more contemporary way of decorating a staircase.
Since there are fewer swags, it uses less garland than the method above.
Cluster Garland
If you do not care for a linear garland, you can decorate using a cluster garland.
For an asymmetrical cluster garland, group evergreen branches and other decorations together and secure with floral wire.
For a symmetrical cluster garland, get some evergreen branches and/or several different floral picks (at least 2 of each type) that coordinate with your decor. Have one face up and the other face down, then attach them at the middle using floral wire.
