I actually own more wreaths than garlands.  So many garlands are stiff and scratchy and I don't want to use them on my furniture and don't like them draped over doors or windows.  So, I look for garlands that are softer and flexible to use, and when I find them I keep using over and over.  I'm still using one of David Shindler's garland from QVC several years ago but it is so nice. 


 

I am the opposite, lucymo, many more garlands than wreaths.  Other than a countertop, I have no place for a wreath unless I stick them to my many walls of glass windows and sliders.  I tried that once many years ago, forgot the wreath was on the slider, opened it, and the wreath went flying, LOL.

 

I have had no trouble bending Valerie's or Ellen's garlands.  I just make them bend.  Smiley Happy

I have many more wreaths than garland for every season of the year.  I guess it's because I make most of them.  Heart

I have sold that stuff for a living, and I can attest to the fact that garlands always sell faster than wreaths.  Not sure exactly why, but in my experience that is true.  Could be that you need so darned many of them to make an impact, whereas a wreath is a statement on it's own.


 

That is interesting.

 

I always just (wrongly) assumed that QVC brings in fewer garlands than wreaths, which is why they are the first to go.
