not the girl Holly, although i do know one!

I have been given a sackful of holly with berries to decorate with, large branches of it, not sure what to do with it. Do I leave the bit I have as large branches on mantle shelf etc or should it up into smaller strands and dot around places, paintings, on the mantle etc? Should i get some ivy to go with it? I do have a few sprigs of christmas tree that can be used too.

Please don't suggest garlands or other creative affairs, as I am useless in that department and lacking in time!

Simple but effective, that is what i require, thank you ladies Grin

Small bunches to tuck the stems behind pictures.

Larger bits on mantel with ivy trails. Only use Christmas tree bits if they are of a non drop variety.

If you try to do too much with holly you just end up with ripped up hands.
