I love this garland idea for Xmas
It's from the PB catalog. They don't sell it but even if they did, it would be overpriced. How hard can this garland be to make?

Re: I love this garland idea for Xmas
That is really cute!
The hardest part for me would be having the patience to wrap so many boxes perfectly and then tying them to cord with the pretty ribbon.

I think it would be fun...with a glass or two of wine. 
And I don't think you need to tie the gifts to the cord, you just slip the cord under the ribbon.

You could probably go to the 99 cent store & pick up a bunch of small boxes & cheap wrapping paper.

A smaller but still cute, less time consuming option - to hang from a kitchen window or something, Avon makes these elf/Mrs. Claus clothes lines:

That is adorable! I know they sell small jewelry type boxes at Michaels. You might be able to get them cheap there.

Re: I love this garland idea for Xmas
You could even do them with boxes around the house or in the pantry. Since they are different sizes, it makes it easier. Jello boxes, small pasta (orzo, ditalini) boxes, etc. I wouldn't expect to see a pudding box if it was a PB item or something sold in the store but homemade, cuts down on $$ there too. A bunch of boxes at michaels or the dollar store can add up if you want to do a big one. so it's just the time +wrapping paper + nice ribbon.

What a great idea. But...what else would you expect from a mother of three?

Thanks! That's the nicest compliment I've received in awhile. 
I love the entire bedroom too. I am loving white furniture lately too. I love the high wainscoting with crown moulding ledge.
