---Pretzel Garland
String store-bought pretzels, either plain, or chocolate or white chocolate-covered, on brightly colored ribbons. Tie a loop around each pretzel as you string so they won't bunch together when you drape them around the tree. To make this easier, work with shorter lengths of ribbon, and tie the ends together. If you're already knuckle-deep in cookie dough, you can create your own cookie pretzel garland.

---Old-Fashioned Popcorn Garland
Thread strong floss, string, or fishing line through an embroidery needle and secure. Carefully string on pieces of air-popped popcorn until you have a garland long enough to wrap around the tree. Make sure to secure both ends of the garland with knots. For color and variety (and taste), try alternating popcorn with dried or fresh cranberries, gumdrops, or other chewy candy or dried fruit.

---Fresh Cranberry Garland
To accent the tree's green color, drape a garland made from firm, shiny fresh cranberries on the branches. Like the popcorn garland, string cranberries on a strong piece of string, floss, or fishing line through a needle and secure both ends with knots.
