I was kinda on the fence because it didn't have lights then I thought, I'll put it around my chandelier! I love the way it looks on it, plus since it's lambs ear it's more versatile than a pine Christmas garland, I can use it in the spring too. It's not HYPER realistic, but it's not cheesy. I feel it was of great quality for the price (I've seen much more expensive garland at retail stores that just looked cheap & awful) overall,  I'm pretty happy with it!
