Christmas Wreath Ideas For Charming And Festive Front Doors

By Simona Ganea | Published on

Wreaths are very popular around Christmas. They’re often displayed on front doors or on walls and they’re of countless different types. One of the most common distinctions is between handmade and store-bought wreaths. The curious thing is a lot of times you can’t even distinguish between the two types because they can take an infinity of forms and styles. To mention a few, there are the foam wreaths which you can decorate with pretty much anything, grapevine wreaths which have a lovely rustic flair, green wreaths made of leaves and clippings, flower wreaths as well as some less common options such as paper or feather wreaths, candy wreath or even cork wreaths.
