Two Garlands!

Ashley wrapped both a tartan plaid ribbon garland and a natural wooden bead garland around her tree. Why not?

Plaid Tidings

Sticking to a simple color scheme and just a few materials yields spectacular results, as this tree designed by Ashley Broviak of Little Glass Jar illustrates. She started by weaving a striking blue-and-green tartan wired ribbon through the branches, followed by a natural wooden bead garland between the rows of plaid. Gold glass ball ornaments and pinecones continue the mix of rustic and formal elements.
