This garland is beautiful and realistic. I purchased four of them. When we got them out of the package, they were very hard to straighten out because of the main wire stand. It also has some sharp pieces near the main wire that can cut you if you are not aware. These two reasons are why it is getting 3 stars, otherwise, I would keep them and give them 5 stars if these issues did not exist. I think I am going to send back. I was looking for something that was easier to handle and to shape.
