4 Woodland Glass Bead Chrismas Garland Patterns Featuring Acorn, Fruit and Mushroom Beads

Below are four different glass beaded garland designs with bead counts and links to the beads used.  From rich jewel tones to woodland hues, these garlands look beautiful on their own or displayed together.  Instructions for the actual assembly of a garland with images, tips and three other garland patterns are linked here: How to String Glass Bead Christmas Garlands. There are 5 additional garland patterns here: 5 Retro and Festive Glass Beaded Christmas Garland Patterns

When working with larger beads, like the mushrooms and pears, please keep in mind it's like handling a blown glass ornament -- string them gently into place on the cord and try to avoid knocking them into each other to avoid breakage.  Be sure to leave at least 1" of slack in your completed garland to allow it to drape.
