Is there such a thing as a tasteful purple Xmas decoration?

Have finally decided I want to add hints of purple, green and gold to my plain cream hall when I finish decorating (i.e. not just Xmas decs).
So am looking for a long garlandy thing to hang along the stairs in green with purple and gold on it, that I can get out every year. TBH it doesn't even have to be Xmassy, I could be tempted to have one all year long as I have some fairly camp gardlandy things elsewhere in the house on an everyday basis.
Anyone seen something nice?

You could make a garland out of dried or silk hydrangeas

The paper rose garland on the top row comes with purple roses? Not as christmassy as Twiglett's suggestion though.

purple butterfly garland?

we have just made a very tasteful advent wreath with purple and silver ribbons and it looks lovely

M&S had some nice purple things today as well.
