Twine of your choice. Leaves with stems (real or faux) -- the longer you’d like your garland, the more leaves you’ll need. Spray paint (metallic shown here).

Dedicate a space to spray painting (it can get a little messy!). Start by spray painting each leaf, then lay leaves flat to dry. Once leaves are completely dry, grab your string and start to tie! One by one, at the base of the stem, tie a double knot to secure the leaf to the string. Leave an inch or two between each leaf and continue to tie the remaining leaves onto the string. Once you’ve completed these steps, you’ll have a gorgeous garland for display!
