Wonderful accent to a centerpiece, too

Comments about Ruby Sparkle Garland:

This product is very colorful. Its design seems poor quality and it looks good from a distance. Up close the quality is poor. Price vs. quality. I bought it on sale and still don't think it was worth the price. Could have found a similar product at [...] for a lot less $$.

Comments about Ruby Sparkle Garland:

I purchased the garland to decorate for Christmas. I used them on my book cases and across my windows. They added a touch of color and look very pretty on the windows. I don't think I'll use them on the book cases next year though, because the wood is dark and the color does't show up as well. Overall I'm very happy with them.

Add beauty and sparkle.

Comments about Ruby Sparkle Garland:

I used this garland on my Christmas tree and it really adds color, sparkle and beauty ! It is very attractive. My only problem is that I did'nt order enough garlands to cover all the way to the bottom of the tree. I got 3 garlands initially, but have since ordered 2 more. That should do the trick !

Great for my party!

Comments about Ruby Sparkle Garland:

I have a small space and these garlands help make everything look festive in a colorful, tasteful way. The simplicity of just arranging along the top of a desk or entertainment center is perfect for ease and time required. I got two of them and they are just what I needed to help decorate my home for Christmas. Thanks!

Comments about Ruby Sparkle Garland:

I like this, but I was surprised to see opaque metallic beads in it. I thought everything would be crystalline. The garland would be much more attractive if it were truly ruby red rather than kind of an off-pink, but it is pretty.

I would like to see this in gold also

Each year our mantel becomes a display ledge for our collection of Christ in the Manger water globes. I was looking for something that would reflect off of the glass and add to the "wow" of the season... this garland mixed with greens works beautifully!

Comments about Ruby Sparkle Garland:

Very different in design, it can look sparkly or icy, bright without being garish, noticeable without taking up a lot of space, airy and light, colors vary from light to deep pinky/red. It's lovely - Christmas is over and I haven't taken it off the mantle yet!

Comments about Ruby Sparkle Garland:

It looked wonderful on my white mantle. Its just a little more pink than the pictures but it was still very attractive. I think it could be used at other times of the year also (like at Easter). Its very delicate looking (but really isn't). I used only one string across the mantle, but I think 2 strings together would look great across a hearth.

I bought two and placed them over the top of two different bay windows. They immediately looked spruced up for the holiday. They were a bit tangly out of the package. I am happy with them and could see them being used up until Valentine's Day.

Comments about Ruby Sparkle Garland:

The garlands are just beautiful, full and just perfect. I bought four because I thought they would be thin and I want a big effect on my mantle. When they arrived, I ended up using just two so I plan to use the other two in a table decoration. I just love them.

Comments about Ruby Sparkle Garland:

These were a FUN SURPRISE. I wish I had bought more, and I bought three boxes; I use them for wrapping presents; I use them on my wreath; I use them around my windows; I use them around flower arrangements; I wear a few in my hair at Christmas parties--they are so fun and just beg creativity! Why? They're absolutely charming, shiny and beautiful. Everyone loves them, and you can shape them and do what you want with them!
