Step 1 · Plan Garland Placement

Before attaching anything, take the lighted garland and drape it along the entire length of the stair railing where you intend to decorate. Walk up and down the stairs to view it from different angles. Identify any posts, newel caps, or spindles where you can securely attach the garland without obstructing traffic flow or damaging the railing. Consider how the lights will be powered and where the cord will be managed to avoid tripping hazards.
