It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

For years, I've hung a swag or two of garland on my small banister.  Sometimes, I would hang ornaments or lights amongst the greenery.  Sometimes, I'd keep it simple.  I think I like the simple look the best and fell in love with this:



In turn, I made it my own and created this:

Here's a close-up:

Each arrangement cost me around $8 and contain two large evergreen picks (complete with pinecones) and four berry sprigs (three on top, one on the bottom) plus a couple of twigs for filler (I bought one package of a bouquet of twigs).  Each one is finished off with a burlap ribbon bow (approx 4 1/2 feet for each...bought two rolls of craft ribbon).

I have a little collection of mini trees that sit in my kitchen window throughout the holidays and this look ties in perfectly!

Oh my goodness, I love my banister this year!  Merry Christmas!
