Re: GLITTER LEAF GARLANDS BY VALERIE

Several years ago I purchased some champagne colored garlands from a. Lisa Robertson Christmas show. I think that it may have been her first holiday show.  At least the first one I had seen.  They seem identical to Valerie's glitter leaf garlands.  They were absolutely beautiful, but I never could seem to use them as garlands.  They were stiff and awquard to use on a tree.  Then, a couple of years ago I saw her clipping apart a garland to make picks.  So I did that and my tree looked spectacular.  There were two garlands in the set and I got lots and lots of picks, some large and some small.  Just tucked them here and there and loved the look.  I am going to get the red this year and use them the same way on my family room tree which is predominantly done in red.  I feel certain that these are the same garlands and they are great quality (hardly any glitter shedding.

@Nanapa, I  have those garlands in gold.  I used mine on one of the trees and they looked really pretty.  I also got Valerie's fern garland that I used on another tree.  They are a little stiff and harder to work with than if they were more pliable but look great on tree.  Did you notice that the price is more too than then just like everything else, I guess.

They remind me of the leaf garlands that LR had as well.

I got the bronze and champagtne when she had them on.

(Actually, 2 sets of each.)  Love them.

@Dataqueen,  I'm really hoping they will bring back the bay leaf picks this year.  I love those and they are substantial, make a good impact.

@Dataqueen, @Nanapa, @lucymo, I looked up the Lisa R garlands once I heard Valerie say that the silver had a tint of champagne in it.  

 

Here is the link if anyone wants to see the old video.  It's kinda like a trip down memory lane.

I will keep a lookout for the silver (champagne-ish) on as-is, since I missed out on them.
