00:00Okay, so I've been on a bit of a mission lately, trying to make my apartment walls look less like
00:04a blank rental box and more like something you'd actually want to photograph. And honestly?
00:10Fake ivy garlands were the answer. They're cheap, they're forgiving, and nobody can tell they're
00:16not real once they're up. So I dug through the listings, checked the reviews, checked what people
00:21are actually buying, and I've got five that are genuinely worth your money. Let's get into it.
00:27First up is the classic bulk buy, the artificial ivy leaf garland that comes in 2, 4, 8, or 10
00:33-meter
00:33lengths. And the big thing here is the length options, because if you're covering a whole
00:38wall or wrapping a balcony railing, you need meterage, not a couple of short strands. Starting at $2.17,
00:46this is the cheapest one on the list, over 4,000 sold, sitting at a 4.7 rating.
00:51If you're doing a big project and you're on a budget, this is where you start.
00:56Buy the long one, cut it to size, done. Number 2 is the Green Ivy Leaf Raw Tan Creeper Vine.
01:03What I like about this one is the leaf density, the foliage sits closer together on the stem,
01:08so when you hang it, you don't get those awkward bald patches showing the wire.
01:12It's $3.07, and it's pulling a 4.9 rating from nearly 4,000 buyers, which is genuinely impressive
01:19at that price. This is the one I'd grab for a headboard, a mirror frame, or anywhere the garland
01:25is going to be seen up close. Third, we've got the 105-centimeter Phos and Dapsis and Crabapple
01:32Vine. Now this one's a bit different, it's not standard ivy. You're getting that whiter,
01:38waxy or pothos-style leaf, which reads as a more expensive houseplant.
01:43533, 4.8 stars, 3,500 sold. If you already have regular ivy up and it's looking a little flat,
01:50mixing a couple of these in adds variation in depth, and that's the trick that makes fake
01:54plants stop looking fake. Number 4 is the 12-piece Green Ivy Leaf Garland Set.
02:0012 strands for $5.87, that's under $0.50 a garland, which is kind of ridiculous.
02:07And because they come as separate strands, you've got way more flexibility.
02:12Wrap a stair rail, run them along a shelf, tuck them behind a headboard,
02:16use a few for a party and keep the rest. 4.9 rating, over 3,000 sold.
02:22Best value on this whole list if you like options.
02:26And number 5, the artificial ivy vine hanging garland that comes in 1-24-piece bundles.
02:32This is the premium pick at $8.26, and you're paying for quality thicker,
02:37more realistic leaves with better color variation, not that flat plastic green.
02:42It's rated 4.9, and the fact you can order a single strand or 24 means you can test one
02:47first
02:48before you commit. If this is going somewhere permanent, like a feature wall or a wedding
02:53backdrop, spend the extra couple of dollars. You'll notice the difference.
02:58Alright, that's my top 5. All the links are down in the description,
