If your like me and opposite of my husband you love decorating your house in glittery lights, green and red ribbon, berries pinecones and garland, beautiful tree, and we wouldn't forget the finishing touch of the perfect wreath on your front door!
Choosing the perfect tree is part of any holiday decorating
tradition, but finding the right wreath for your front door can really finish
off your holiday look and can be a beautiful and elegant addition to your
exterior décor. Choosing the right
wreath, however, can be complicated, so here are a few tips to consider for
finding a holiday wreath that not only works for your door, but also
coordinates with your other holiday decorations and the exterior of your home.
Size
The size of your wreath is an important consideration in
making it look its best on your front door.
If you have a large, prominent front door then you'll want to choose a
wreath that matches it well. A small
wreath will get lost on the door and won't look proportional.
Color
While you may select a wreath based on its appearance and
whether it matches your other holiday décor, you will also want to choose a
wreath that has colors that complement the color of your door. If you have mostly red and green holiday
decorations, but have a blue door, you may want to consider a blue and silver
themed wreath, perhaps hung with white lights, to better complement your front
door. I have a white door so for me have a very unlimited wreath choices except the snow covered snowflake wreath would practically disappear on my door.
Materials
This is the area where you can really get creative. From natural to synthetic, from pine to
grapevine, there are a number of options from which you can choose. I personally love the natural stuff and that's my style. Again, when selecting a wreath for your front
door you'll want to consider whether it matches not only the other decorations,
but the door itself and the style of your home.
For example, if you live in a traditional or historic style home, using
natural materials such as greenery and berries may look better than a more
modern arrangement.
Decorating for the holidays should always be fun and reflect
your personal style. But when selecting particular items for the exterior of
your home, it is always a good idea to be sure they accent rather than detract.
