1. Protective Decorating Gloves
Holiday installs can be rough on your hands — especially when working with flocked trees, wired branches, and heavy garlands. These gloves protect your skin while still giving you the flexibility to shape branches and fluff greenery.
2. Floral Wire (Green) & Cutters
This is the secret ingredient behind every seamless, secure holiday design. I use green floral wire to:
Attach ornaments
Reinforce garlands
Secure ribbon loops
Anchor stems and picks
It disappears into the greenery and holds everything beautifully. 22 gauge is the perfect strength to hold any ornament. Bonus, this one comes with cutters!
3. Sharp Decorating Scissors
A clean cut makes all the difference when trimming ribbon. I keep a dedicated pair of holiday scissors in my tool bag so they stay sharp all season long.
Why These Tools Matter
Professional holiday decorating is all about:
Clean lines
Secure attachments
Hidden mechanics
Beautiful, intentional design
These tools help you achieve that polished, boutique look — whether you’re decorating your own home or styling for clients.
