Well, we did &#8211; so we decided to try it and it\u2019s super easy. While it takes a bit of time, just pop in your favorite Christmas movie and get to work! We think it\u2019s definitely worth it \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><H3>Step 1: Prepare the Essentials<\/H3><br \/>First of all, you might be asking what are the essentials? Well here\u2019s what you\u2019re going to need:<br \/>1. Fresh Cranberries (not <i>dried<\/i> cranberries)<br \/>2. Popped Popcorn (not buttered, we chose to make our own on the stove)<br \/>3. White Thread<br \/>4. Needle<br \/><\/p>\n<p><H3>Step 2: Set Everything Up<\/H3><br \/>Make your life easy by pouring your popped popcorn and cranberries into 2 separate bowls. During this step, you should also get your thread ready. We did multiple 5 foot strings and doubled them to give the popcorn and cranberries more support. Highly recommend this tip! Not only does it make your garland stronger, it also feels less tedious by breaking apart the garland. <br \/><i>Pro Tip:<\/i> Don\u2019t forget to tie the end of your thread. We had a bit of a mishap when we thought we finished our first garland, lifted it and alas, everything fell off. At least my dog was happy to clean up the popcorn mess!<br \/><\/p>\n<p><H3>Step 3: Get to Stringing<\/H3><br \/>Pop in your favorite Christmas movie, pour a glass of wine, and start stringing your garland. To begin, thread your needle through the center\/thick part of the piece of popcorn and go from there. We decided to do a 3 popcorn, 1 cranberry pattern. <br \/><\/p>\n<p>Once you have a pattern going, you\u2019ll find yourself flying along!<br \/><\/p>\n<p><H3>Step 4: Hang the Garland on the Tree<\/H3><br \/>Yay, you\u2019ve finished a few! We\u2019re proud of you. Now start hanging them on your tree! Here\u2019s a pro tip for you: only put the strings on the front. That way you don\u2019t have to make endless amounts of garland and it can be our little secret. <br \/><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><H3>We wish you a Merry Christmas and happy popcorn garland making!<\/H3> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever wondered how they used to make that classic popcorn garland that was strung around trees?
