Christmas wreaths, the perfect decoration for your Christmas

Round, colourful and gorgeous, Christmas wreaths can be a perfect decoration for both indoors and out. How to use them? Where to place them? Customise them or not? Let’s find out together.

Every year, from October to January, the streets are filled with the warmth that only the Christmas atmosphere can give. We are carried away by this whirlwind of colours, sparkling lights and melodic songs that echo through the streets of the cities. Each of us, in our own small way, tries to recreate the same atmosphere and the same warmth, but to do so, one cannot ignore one of the most popular decorations of recent years: the wreaths. Decorations with a Nordic flavour have spread very quickly also in Italy. Let’s see together some ideas and suggestions to make the most of their potential.

Where to put the Christmas wreath?

Christmas wreaths are always a valid decoration, of different sizes, styles and colours, they easily adapt to any environment.

Placing the wreath on the front door is just one of the ways they can be used and probably the most classic one too. But are there other ways to use them? Experimentation is always possible just rely on your imagination and inspiration.

The ideas are endless and trust me, none can be wrong.

Christmas Wreath: Which to Choose?

The trends of this 2020 now running out suggest that the most popular wreaths are those that have neutral and natural colours at their base, the white of the snow, the green of the fir trees, the brown of the twigs and the red of the berries.

Among our favourites, there are those made solely with pine cones.

Natural or coloured, the pine cones wreaths recall nature without being banal, capable of breaking the monotony of the Christmas tables, especially if enriched with battery-powered LED mini lights.

DIY Christmas Wreath: Ideas and Tips

Many elements added to a simple green wreath can give it new life and a completely different character. So go ahead with ribbons, tapes, pine cones and bells to achieve the effect you really want.

For those who love simple and romantic things, a thread of warm lights to wrap a simple wreath of pine needles is the simplest, fastest and most effective solution.

Alternatively, you can choose to attach coloured ribbons or Christmas balls, it takes very little, a thread of twine or hot glue to fix the elements you prefer and obtain an always different effect.

If, on the other hand, you love experimentation and get out of the usual schemes, you can choose something that recalls the not too distant Provence, some sprigs of lavender, dried or fake, can be attached to a simple circular iron wire or for an even more particular effect, you can choose to mix more styles by adding the twigs to your wreath made with pine branches. Really très chic!
