Materials Needed

• Foliage for garland (this may be a branch of a fruit tree or pine tree)
• Tie wire
• Scissors / Cutter
• Pliers
• Steel tape measure or any measuring tools
• Christmas decors like balls, foils, candy canes, etc.

Directions

1. Measure your pendant lamp from the ceiling to the tip of its metal tube.
2. Cut the foliage or branch of the tree that you chose. It can be artificial or natural. Allow at least a few inches of excess measurements to cater the curves and corners. In case your foliage is not that long to cover the metal tube, you can hook up your materials together to get the right length.
3. Then, curl up your foliage by turning or twisting it around the metal tube. Have them in close proximity but leave some space for the metal to be seen. This will create a nice effect of greenery in the interior.
4. To maintain its arrangements, use a tie wire to fasten the foliage. Hide the tie wire with the foliage to maintain the neatness.
5. Decorate the foliage with your available Christmas decors like the balls, foils or candy canes. Make it minimal so as not to make it look like a Christmas tree.
