How to hang a garland in a rental without drilling
Use a hook, not a nail
Use a hook or a lanyard hook to hang the garland, not a nail. A hook lifts off the wall or mantel when the season ends. Check the hook’s weight rating first, then hang the garland on it.
Tie it to a banister
Tie the garland to a banister or porch rail, using built-in ties like the ones on the Hongsome Green Tinsel. Ties hold the garland in place and blend with the decor. Untie them at the end of the season, then coil the garland for storage.
Wrap it, do not pin it
Wrap the garland around a mantel, tree, or banister, instead of pinning it to a wall. Wrapping holds the shape and leaves no holes to fill. Bend the wire by hand to fit the space.
Plug in, do not hardwire
Plug the garland in, instead of hardwiring it to a wall. A plug-in garland with stackable plugs lets you control power with a simple plug. Unplug it when you take the garland down.
Take it down in one piece
Take the garland down in one piece, so you can reuse it next year. Untie the ties, lift the hook, and coil the garland in wide loops. Store it in a dry bin or bag until next season.
