You can make the garland to any length you like and add as many or as few of the decorations you want. My Garland measured approximately 60” (152 cm)
Ch 301
 Row 1) 1 hdc in 3rd ch from hk, 298 hdc across, finish
      

Attach the decorations at regular intervals. 
    

Wreath
I used 2 types of wreath. A willow wreath, you just add the decorations where you want them.

And a polystyrene wreath that has had white yarn wrapped around it. As you wrap the yarn you place each round next to the previous one. You then attach what decorations you want.
       

The other option is to use the decorations as they are and decorate round your house.
