Season's Greenings: Decorating with Holiday Greenery

Get in the red and green spirit of things by decking the hall with boughs of pine or spruce and wreaths of pepperberry.

Here's How: * Buy one or two blue spruce or pine garlands from your garden center or holiday tree lot.
* Hang small pepperberry wreaths at intervals -- about every 3 feet -- on the banister.
* Secure the wreaths with tightly twisted pipe cleaners.
* Disguise the pipe cleaner by looping a length of ribbon around it and the banister.
* Drape the garland through each wreath, starting at the bottom and working your way up to the top of the stairs.

Tip: Measure the length of your stairs before you buy the garland -- add a few feet so that it will drape properly.
