The holiday season is speeding toward us, and even though it’s only October, it might be best to get ahead of your decorating plans—especially if you imagined a massive bow garland draped across your fireplace. They’re selling out left and right.
A plush 6-foot design from Michaels flew off the shelves. (Don’t worry, we got word it’s coming back in stock on November 1.) Even the mauve and taupe velvet options from Lulu and Georgia are long gone. And we get it—bows used to grace the boughs of holiday trees and we’re happy to see them strung out in swooping curves of cheer. If you want to get your hands on one, it’s not too late. We found a handful that will help get you in the spirit.
For the Person Who Regularly Accessorizes With Bows
Holiday color palettes have (thankfully) evolved past the classic green and red, and this garland is a perfect example of that. The satin texture is the cherry on top—not too flashy but way festive.
For the Person Who Never Takes Down Holiday Decor
Leaving your Christmas lights and stockings up well into May is okay, but it’s better if you’ve got something that doesn’t scream “Santa is coming!” The customization options for this garland make that possible. Go for ivory or sage green for a fresh feeling.
For the Person Obsessed With Decorating Early
If you’re after something a bit alternative, this multicolored string of felt bows can be hung up the moment the leaves start putting on their fall show.
For the Person Who Loves a Homemade Vibe
Are you constantly reminiscing about the tree ornaments you made in elementary school? This felt ball and bow garland speaks the same language (but it’s definitely the teacher’s example).
For the Person Who Actually Wants a DIY Project
Big, sweeping bows with long tails are wonderfully dramatic. You can make your own garland by getting a couple of extra-large bows from Heather Taylor Home (the brand recently restocked them) and stringing them together with fabric in the same pattern.
