Decorating a tree of that size typically requires consideration of the desired fullness and overall aesthetic. A sparsely decorated tree might use 9-12 feet of garland, while a heavily decorated tree could require 18-24 feet or more. Visualizing the tree with the desired level of embellishment is crucial to estimating the necessary length.
Appropriate garland quantity contributes significantly to a visually balanced and aesthetically pleasing holiday display. Historically, evergreen boughs served as festive adornments, evolving over time into the manufactured garlands commonly used today. The quantity selected directly impacts the overall presentation, influencing the balance between the tree’s natural form and the decorative elements.
