25 ft. Fresh Cedar Garland - FAQs
1. How long will the Fresh Cedar Garland last?
Fresh cedar garland typically lasts around 3 to 4 weeks indoors and up to 6 weeks outdoors if kept in cooler, moist conditions. To maximize its freshness, mist the garland with water every few days and avoid placing it in direct sunlight or near heating vents, which can dry it out faster.
2. Is the cedar garland safe to use indoors?
Yes, cedar garland is safe and popular for indoor use, adding a wonderful forest scent and natural greenery to mantels, staircases, and door frames. Just remember to mist it occasionally to keep it fresh longer, especially in warm, dry indoor environments.
3. Can I cut the garland into smaller sections?
Absolutely! This 25 ft. garland can be easily cut into smaller sections using sharp scissors or pruning shears, allowing you to customize it for different decorating needs, from tabletops to smaller accent areas. Be aware that cut ends may dry a bit faster, so mist them to keep the foliage looking fresh.
4. Does the cedar garland have a fragrance?
Yes, fresh cedar garlands are known for their earthy, pine-like fragrance, which adds a festive and refreshing scent to any space. The scent is naturally subtle but noticeable, especially when placed indoors or in close quarters. The aroma may fade slightly over time but generally lasts as long as the garland itself stays fresh.
5. How should I hang the garland without damaging surfaces?
For hanging the garland, use gentle, removable adhesive hooks or ribbon ties to avoid damaging walls, doors, or mantels. If using nails, consider attaching the garland to a surface that won’t easily show holes, or use hooks designed to remove cleanly. The garland is lightweight but may benefit from extra support if positioned vertically or draped heavily.
