Garlands: Party Decor to Home Decor

Decorating for a party is one of my favorite parts of entertaining.  When the kids were young, I'd go nuts putting together theme parties.  They're not so into it anymore :(.  So, I had tons of fun setting up party tablescapes to showcase my new garlands for my Etsy shop.

How fun is this for a Fourth of July decoration?  I paired 2 of my fabric buntings with Dollar Store items and an apple pie to make a fun, patriotic display.  I think these re-usable banners are so much nicer than the disposable paper versions.

A similar look works for weddings, too:
