I have a question about home decorating. I want to hang around the top
of my walls strings of pine needles. Right where the wall and the
ceiling meet and make a square. I've seen these before but I have no
idea what they are called or where to find them. I think palm leaves
would look better too if I could find them but I've never seen them.
So I guess my question is what are these called, where can I find
them, and if you can find them with big palm fronds that would be
great. Thanks a bunch

Hi Huntd77,

   I believe what you are seeking are artificial pine or evergreen
garlands. The following sites sell various styles of garlands from
which you can choose.


If you ever get to Frankenmuth, Michigan, this store is a ?must
visit?! It?s a wonderful store where its Christmas all year long!

This site sells numerous styles of pine garlands. Scroll down a bit,
and click on each picture to enlarge it. This merchant says that some
merchandise is seasonal only, so it MAY not be available right now,
but you may e-mail or call them.

Palm Leaves- I found no pre-made palm frond or palm leaf garlands. I
have collected some sites that sell fronds and leaves, and below are
directions for making a garland. You may substitute the palm fronds
for the foliage used in the directions.

Preserved palm fronds

The above site also has greenery garlands, but none of palm fronds.

Additionally, you can find a local craft shop where the floral
department can help you make a palm frond garland or suggest a way to
place the fronds as you like. You can also find pine garlands at a
local craft shop.
