Review on Beistle 20844 Holly Berry Garland by Amanda Young

I got this to cover my fireplace grate. The first thing that struck me is that the vine is all plastic, no wire. Second, as soon as I took it out of the packaging, the berries/leaves started falling off. The holly leaves are fabric but feel and look like plastic, while the berries are all plastic. I ended up gluing all the pieces of the leaf to the plastic pins on the vine because it literally fell apart trying to install it. I also wrapped it around a spare wire berry garland to make it easier to keep in place. It turned out well, but only with a lot of work. I'm a bit shocked because Beistle is such an old company known for their quality jewelry. 😒🤨
