Has anyone used these to make garland? If so, how long a strand of garland will this 7lb bag make?

I purchased a 7lbs bag to make Christmas wreaths and was quite pleased. Since I prefer my wreaths thick, it will make 2 small wreaths and 1 bag will make one. I hope I've answered your question.

As Diane S. points out, standard twist ties are useless if you use these bags as designed. They're just nowhere near strong enough. I'd recommend cable ties instead (and something longer than the standard 8"). Something like this: Joy Fish 14.6" Heavy Duty Nylon Cable Ties, 50 lb Test (Black, 100PC)

I have used sandwich bags to make a carrot shaped bag - & put orange Reese's pieces in it for an Easter bag. But it's tricky - have to push the seal button & release it manually really quickly. I have also used generic bags bought online - & they work great! My favorites are the 8" wide rolls.Hope this helps you!

I wish I could tell you exactly. I haven't even made a dent in my bag & I've sprouted several batches. I imagine it will depend on how thick you sow them in that size container you mentioned. Maybe a nursery could better tell you for the size planters you want to use.

Yes, you could use this to hang several necklaces on each peg depending on the size of the necklace. The pegs are about 2 inches overall and are bent slightly up. I use the rack for ties and have 34 ties on it which is a little messy but it works for now. Hope that helped.

Hi, Curt--picking up from below--I got about11 yards in length, so you would probably need more than one double roll for your project. . Hope this helps. catbirdz

I have used them in the past fo cutting 1 inch diagonals and for small pieces and they did just fine for me. At this price I keep some for my glass and some for other materials. Hope this helped.

Use to hang plants outside (weight 10-12 pounds), no bend in the hanger. However, did have to get longer screws as the ones provided were too short (pulled out of fence when rained or wind). Longer screws work perfectly, no problems with hanger at all!!

I'm a crafter also and it works wonderful. It's heavy so wind will not blow it over. It will collapse, not sure how that will work on a regular basis. I purchased mine to roll into a trailer and to the booth, so mine stays stationary. Holds approx 15 to 20 wreaths depending on size of wreaths. I also hung a rod on the end rails for middle rod. Will definitely purchase more!!

We use them for a leaf that we have for our Kitchen Island.They seem to be pretty strong..I would think about a 100 pounds or more.

These are too small. They're about an inch tall, so I don't think they'd hold garland.

It will help to make the greenery last longer - but any fresh cut green that you bring into the house which is heated by hot air is going to dry out pretty quickly-but the wilt proof will help to make it last longer - and the garland will probably look decent as long as you don't touch it - if you touch it then most of the leaves/Needles will just crumble because they will be so dry(after a week or so)

Harbor Freight has a good kit w/ rings & twine, but I folded mine in 1/2 and used a wooden rod @ the top & bottom. I just hung the top & strung the bottom. I also stapled some to a wooden door, worked fine. This is all outdoor if you didn't know.

I'm not sure. My 7 and 10 year old have made tons of bracelets/necklaces/rings out of them with no issues.

Each strand should be twist tied, we just went one at a time. It's tedious but worth it. They are beautiful when stretched out.
