    Gift wrapping by WoolJamboree

    Wrapped neatly in white tissue paper and bakers twine. If you want to include a message, a card is added. BE SURE TO INCLUDE A NAME for who its from.

Wool Jamboree pencil and apple garland is bright and perfect for classroom decorations, teacher wall decor or school celebrations! Homeschoolers and Preschool classes are top customers of mine.

Made of 2.5 cm felt wool balls and alternating solid wool felted pencils and apples, strung on white cotton cord or your choice of colored Bakers Twine. See bakers twine photo for colors and make your selection in the drop down menu. Do not pick bakers twine for touching garlands, as it is not seen. Shapes (meaning pencils, apples AND felt balls) on the garland are not knot tied, and can be slid around with gentle pressure to get the look you desire. They will stay where you want them on the cotton cord.

Felt Ball colors: white
If you would like to swap a color, see the felt ball color chart and tell me of the swap in the Personalization section. Pencils and apples are not customizable.

Garlands will follow the pattern of: 4 balls, 1 apple, 4 balls, 1 pencil, 4 balls, 1 apple, 4 balls, 1 pencil, 4 balls, etc. There are 3 spacings to choose from: 4 felt shapes per foot, 6 felt shapes per foot, and touching felt shapes (about 11 shapes per foot). "Shapes" means pencils, apples AND balls.

I wish I understood the size of the item better, maybe the pictures could help describe the different options - I'm super visual. The item itself is so cute and looks nice - I think I would have purchased a more full garland if I understood what the options meant. Arrived very quickly and in great shape.

Response from Amy

All the information is there in the listing details, especially spacing information :) Etsy practically hides the listing description (which makes no sense!) and sellers can’t decide listing layout so I’m sure you just missed it. But photos of all 3 spacing options are in the listing regardless, which is pretty visual for all customers to see what they should expect to receive :) Even with Etsy hiding listing details, it’s rare customers don’t scroll past the first photo and see their choices. Not every item in the drop down menu is reflected in the first listing photo.
