Here is my little secret! I TRUELY have used this product for years and love it. It is simple and can be used from year to year.
See below how easy it is to use!
This is the same product you can use but marketed for plants on Amazon…
IT REALLY WORKS GREAT!

First, cut a piece long enough to wrap around your railing about one and a half times. Place it under the garland and banister wrapping it around and press to secure the velcro tie to itself. It’s velcro, it sticks to itself!! I can’t get any easier!
From the back side of the banister, it looks like this. Not so pretty, but see how I mask it…
I buy a few silk flower or poinsettias, and tuck them under my bows and into the garland, placing the poinsettias over the velcro ties.
Tada! Now it’s pretty for anyone going up the stairs! I hope you found this helpful in hanging all of your holiday decorations!
The other great thing is it doesn’t get ruined when you take it down. It can be used from year to year! Now that’s how to hang garland on staircase banisters!

You have decorated the stairs like a bridal. This is good and my all best wishes for you
I am literally at a conference for Annie Sloan stockists and retailers and painted stairs were one of our covered topics. So I think you are really onto something here, Kris! In addition to doing patterns, remember you could also just paint the backs of stairs an interesting color or series of colors….Just learned about Annie Sloans floor lacquer – which is a thin, clear coat that was developed to be compatible with her Chalk Paint making it now suitable for use on floors. HOORAY!
