Garland as round centerpiece for table

Can you use a garland as a round centerpiece for a table?  Would it be too stiff to form into a circle? Thanks for any advice.

@Carol08 - I've done this a lot. It's really easy. I've used a garland around my hurricane candle by just making the circle. Some of mine have a loop at one end for hanging. I just take part of it and loop it through, and it never comes undone. Good luck! Smiley Happy

@beach-mom Thanks so much for letting me know.  I didn't know if it will be pliable enough to form into a circle, but I will take your advice, and see if I can make it work.Heart

@beach-mom  Valrie has made garlands with a loop so the ends can be attached forming a circle.

@Carol08 - I would say you can *usually* turn a garland into a round centerpiece; I tried making a harvest version last year with a garland from my local craft store and it turned out to not be quite flexible enough for the size I wanted (it wouldn't go small enough without being just a mess). Good luck!
