Christmas DIY: Make Your Own Hanging Table Garland

Christmas is just around the corner, and it’s the perfect moment to start thinking about decorations!

If you’re looking for a creative and festive way to elevate your holiday table, why not try a DIY hanging table garland? It’s simple to make, fun to customise, and will definitely wow your guests. Let’s get started!

Materials You’ll Need:

• Lytworx Warm White Battery Operated Shape Holding Lights
• White PVC Cup Hook
• Ramset Nylon WallMate Plasterboard Anchor
• Load Braided Picture Hanging Wire
• A sturdy stick (to hang decorations from)
• Assorted decorations (from Bunnings)
• Ribbons in various lengths
• Greenery (real or fake leaves)
• Scissors

Step 1: Install the Hooks

First, grab your wall anchors and hooks from Bunnings. Attach the hooks to the ceiling above your table, ensuring they're evenly spaced. These hooks will hold the garland in place. Then, use picture hanging wire to connect the hooks and create a base to hang from.

Step 2: Add Some Sparkle

Wrap wire battery lights around the stick, creating a glowing centerpiece for your garland. Once done, attach the stick to the hanging wire you installed earlier. The lights will give your garland a magical, festive feel.

Step 3: Choose Your Colour Scheme

Pick your favourite Christmas colour scheme (reds, greens, golds, or whatever speaks to you!). Hang Bunnings decorations from the stick using different lengths of ribbon. Hang them at various heights to create a playful, dynamic look.

Step 4: Fill in the Gaps

Continue adding decorations until the stick is fully covered. Start with larger ornaments first, then fill in any gaps with smaller ones. This gives the garland a full and balanced appearance.

Step 5: Add Greenery

For an extra festive touch, thread real or artificial green leaves (available at Bunnings) through the wire to cover the stick. This adds a natural, elegant element to your garland.

Step 6: Final Touches

Once your stick is completely covered and adorned with decorations, your hanging garland is ready to shine! Now, decorate the table beneath with candles, tableware, or any holiday décor you love.

And that’s it! Your DIY hanging table garland is all set to make your Christmas celebrations even more magical. 🎄✨
