I haven't been on for awhile. I have been so busy making the fabric garlands that I can't do anything else. I can't believe how much everyone loves these! and I'm so glad! I have had fun making them and am really thrilled to be sharing in someone's special day. Having to breathe the fabric dust is OK! I have been matching the garlands up to some really cool stuff and doing it quite well, I might add. Like I was sent this picture.

So, if you have a certain item you want me to match a garland for you, this is a great idea.

I can't believe it's been since May since I've been here! I'm a doofus. Well, it it wasn't so late, I'd write now, but you''all will have to wait til tomorrow. OK, well I need to display all my garlands, so here's the best place to do it. These garlands are becoming so popular. I'm actually working on one for a wedding and it is SO pretty! I'll show that later. Here are the ones I have sold:

Fabric Garlands -Recycled Fabrics... GO GREEN!

Perfect decoration for wedding shower, baby shower or decor in your home. These garlands are perfect and versatile, too. Decorate the baby shower then take the garland home and hang it in the babies room, doorway, playroom or any room in your home.

One of a kind decoration for parties, showers, babys room, playroom or outside. I love it! Perfect for over a mantle, as a window valance, above your table, over the buffet, to decorate a cake table or gift table at parties. It could be used at weddings, showers, birthday parties or for everyday decorating. It's made of ripped fabric from blankets, sheets, clothing and scrap fabric.

The garland measures 60 inches long and has nice long loops on each end for hanging. The strands very in length from 12-18 inches. The scraps are tied onto twine.

These garlands can be customized by color, size and fabric.


They're versatile and reusable!!


Imagine these garlands hanging from the wedding party tables, over the cake table or hung between trees or on poles and scattered throughout an outdoor reception. Wouldn’t they be beautiful on the backs of chairs? They can add softness and charm and maybe a final touch to your beautiful decorations.



I can make the garlands out of any type of fabric, make them any size you need and use colors that can go with particular themes or décor. They can be used for baby or wedding showers, receptions and weddings or other special events and dinners. The garlands can be used for Holiday decorations or be themed towards parties for house warming, Graduation, Retirement, job promotions, Birthdays for any age or simple summer barbecues. They can be soft and pretty, wild and carefree or simple and elegant. They are eco-friendly too, because the fabrics I use are from vintage and recycled clothing, linens, blankets, curtains, quilts, bedding…etc. They are made from pretty much whatever I can find at yard sales, flea markets and even Goodwill.

Here are some more of the garlands I currently have for sale.



The garlands are priced right, too. The average price is $5.00 per foot for standard colors, prints and fabrics. If specialty fabrics or hard to find designs are to be used, the price will be $10.00 per foot. So for a simple 5 foot garland, like the one in the pictures, it would cost $25.00. For a garland that uses velvets or silks or hard to find fabrics, it would be $50.00 for a 5 foot garland. Either price is still a steal because these garlands can be used so many ways! 
I think these are perfect in a lot of ways. After your wedding, you can use these in a guest bedroom, in the baby's room as valances, over a set of closet doors or as a wall hanging. Hang one done in your baby room colors over the crib or on the side of the crib.
