Our yearly friendsgiving celebration is this weekend! \u00a0It\u2019s become a tradition that I make a \u201cgive thanks\u201d garland and each year I try to switch it up a little. \u00a0I\u2019m still and always loving incorporating greens into party decor and didn\u2019t pass up that opportunity this time. \u00a0Something different I did though was actually making the letters. \u00a0It’s very simple to do!<\/span><\/p>\n Materials: Write out each word on paper and use it as a guide to bend the natural wire. \u00a0Bending with my fingers was mostly sufficient, but certain parts were easier with pliers. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Next, use the floral wire to wrap the greens around the natural wire. \u00a0<\/span>Try to avoid wrapping wire around the leaves so they can stick out as they naturally do. \u00a0At the end, rip off any leaves that look crazy and are getting in the way of making the garland look legible. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Use string to tie up and hang. \u00a0I hung mine from a wood dowel suspended between two windows, but any temporary wall hooks would work as well.<\/p>\n The last time I worked with myrtle, it took about two days before the leaves started drying and curling up, but even then it’ll still look cute. \u00a0It’s best to make this the same day but the day before would be completely fine!<\/p>\n After saying every year that I’m going to do it, I’ll finally\u00a0<\/em>be cooking turkey (and making the gravy) for the first time ever in my life. \u00a0I’m\u00a0extremely hopeful for\u00a0a juicy and tasty result. \u00a0I’ll report back on that if you guys are interested, otherwise I’ll probably be sharing that on IG story\/Snapchat this weekend!<\/p>\n Have you already had your friendsgiving yet, or are you going to, or do you not celebrate?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Our yearly friendsgiving celebration is this weekend! \u00a0It\u2019s become a tradition that I make a \u201cgive thanks\u201d garland and each year I try to switch it up a little. \u00a0I\u2019m still and always loving incorporating greens into party decor and didn\u2019t pass up that opportunity this time. \u00a0Something different I did though was actually making … Continue reading “DIY Thanksgiving Greenery Garland”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14846,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,282],"tags":[58,353,299,367,393,300,126],"class_list":["post-14826","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-diy","category-seasonalholiday","tag-decor","tag-entertain","tag-friendsgiving","tag-minimal","tag-modern","tag-party","tag-thanksgiving"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14826","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14826"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14826\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14851,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14826\/revisions\/14851"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14826"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14826"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14826"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
