Tinsel and several types of garland or ribbon are commonly used to decorate a Christmas tree. Lighting with candles is commonly done, and a tree topper completes the ensemble. Strands of tinsel may be hung in groups from longer branches to simulate icicles, though this trend has gradually fallen off since the late 1970s. It is Christmas time again and even though there is strung lights outside house and decked the halls inside with boughs of holly it just does not feel festive. One needs something else. Something new and that is tinsel garland.

If someone is not willing to spend hard-earned money on new holiday decoration then tinsel is the right choice as is gives desire colour and bright look at home at festive time. Here are some easy ways of home decor in Christmas. Take some of old glass ball and arrange them in a bowl. Clear glass bowls are especially striking, as the ornaments show through. A small crystal candy dishes can be used to display the small hooks, but still had beautiful pearly finishes. Recycle old tinsel garland by cutting shorter lengths of it and using it to accent the current decor.

It can be wrapped around the basket handle in a spiral pattern, leaving some of the original handle showing. Re-frame a mirror with gold, red or green garland of tinsel. Tie a bow and attach it to the top of a present or homemade goodie tray.
