Mistletoe comes in many forms, including artificial, real, and dried, and has its uses year-round.
Artificial mistletoe can be used in multiple holiday crafts and for various decorating ideas. Mistletoe is often seen in garlands, wreaths, and kissing balls, which make beautiful decorations for holiday parties or winter weddings.
