The holidays are nearly here, and with them comes the joy of stairway decor. While stairwells don't always get a lot of love during the rest of the year, Christmas is the perfect time to jazz them up with a simple accessory: garlands.
Kourtney Kardashian's take on garland dressing for the stairs is chic and easily replicable – all you need is garland and some string lights (or, for an even simpler option, opt for garland that comes pre-lit).
As well as being festive and fresh, experts say that garland is one of the best Christmas decor ideas for those who are looking for straightforward options that are just as easy to put up as they are to take down.
'Invest in freestanding items like tabletop trees, holiday figurines, and lanterns,' says trends expert Johanna Constantinou. 'These decorations eliminate the need for hooks, screws, or sticky adhesives, which can damage paint, leave residue, or create holes in walls. Use lightweight ornaments and garlands to reduce strain on hooks or fixtures; these are also less likely to scratch or dent surfaces. Lightweight garlands can be draped over stair banisters or furniture without causing scratches, and pre-lit faux greenery can be laid along countertops or bookshelves for a festive touch without adhesive.'

However, this garland will look just as beautiful for many Christmases ahead.
