How many garland ties do you need for a banister?

The Simply Products pack has ten 30cm ties. One every 30cm or so along a 2.7m garland uses about nine, so one pack does a standard staircase.

Will the Simply Products garland wire ties mark paint?

The listing does not say. They are wire under a cover of green artificial grass, so wind them with the grass side against the rail and keep the cut wire ends away from the paint.

Can you reuse Simply Products garland wire ties?

They are wire, so they bend on and bend off again. The listing does not promise a number of uses, and the grass cover will wear with handling.

The unglamorous piece that keeps the garland on the stairs: ten ties that vanish into the greenery.

Ten green wire ties, 30cm long and 4cm wide, covered in artificial grass so they disappear into a garland when they hold it to a banister.

The one catchThe listing says nothing about painted surfaces, so the brief's wish for ties that do not mark paint is not promised; wind the grass side against the rail and keep the wire ends off the paint

Is it worth it?

Yes, as the fixing for a banister garland, which is the one thing most garland listings forget. Simply Products' ties are 30cm of wire dressed in green artificial grass, so they wind round garland and rail together and are lost in the foliage. The catch is that the listing says nothing about painted wood: the brief for the hallway wanted ties that do not mark paint, and this listing does not promise it either way.

Is it for you?

Get it if

Fixing a garland to a banister, stair rail or curtain pole
Anyone who wants the fixings to disappear into the greenery
A pack of ten for a 2.7m garland, one every 30cm or so

Skip it if

A freshly painted banister you would rather not test — the listing does not say they will not mark paint
Hooks or clips that hold a garland away from the rail: these wrap, they do not hang
Anything heavier than a garland; they are 30cm of wire, not a bracket

The honest read

What wins you over

Ten in the pack, 30cm each, which covers a long banister garland
Green artificial grass over the wire, so they hide in the foliage
Wire, so they bend to the rail and bend back off again

Where it gives

The listing says nothing about painted surfaces, so the brief's wish for ties that do not mark paint is not promised; wind the grass side against the rail and keep the wire ends off the paint
They wrap round the rail, so a garland tied with them sits on the banister, not beneath it
At 4cm wide the grass is visible on a thin or pale garland
