When it comes to adding a touch of festivity to your home during the holiday season, wreaths are a must-have decoration. Their circular shape symbolizes everlasting life and their scent of fresh evergreens can't be beaten. However, wreaths can do more than just hang on the front door. Here are three creative ways to incorporate wreaths in your holiday decor.
1. Table Centerpiece
Who says wreaths are just for walls? Try using them as a table centerpiece. Set a wreath in the center of your dining table and decorate it with fruit, glass balls, pinecones or any other holiday decor you have on hand. You can place candles, a bowl of more greenery or a vase in the center of the wreath to complete the look. As seen in the Garden Home Retreat, a wreath from the Silver Collection can be filled with an arrangement of Noble Fir, pinecones, silver balls, green apples, and artichokes for a stunning centerpiece.
2. Personalized Gift
Wreaths also make wonderful personalized gifts. Start with a wreath that has a bow, berries, and other embellishments. Then, tie on additional decor items with green floral wire to create a unique wreath for your recipient. For example, if your friend collects nutcrackers, create a nutcracker wreath for her. She can enjoy the wooden figures and save them for decoration again next year.
3. Indoors and Outdoors
Wreaths can be used both indoors and out. Hang them on the footboards of beds, on kitchen windows, gates, windows or even on the front door. Try hanging a trio of wreaths on the windows of your kitchen for a cozy holiday touch. Outdoors, wreaths can be hung anywhere you want to add a bit of festive charm.
Incorporating wreaths into your holiday decor is a no-brainer. From table centerpieces to personalized gifts and indoor/outdoor decorations, wreaths are versatile and make a statement in any home.
