I’ve been making my own front door wreaths for decades. There is just something so satisfying about making a wreath! I am using my wreath on my front door. We have a covered porch so the wreath is pretty safe from most weather. So the answer is yes, you can use this wreath outside IF it is protected. I did have some pine needles on hand in case I needed to fill any area of the wreath in. But it was so full I did not need to add any other Christmas greens. Today a Christmas wreath is a common symbol of Christmas!

Christmas wreaths have a long and rich history. Here is a very short version of why we hang Christmas wreaths on our front doors…A bow adds so much personality… YOUR personality to a wreath! And it goes a long way to create a big dose of color or texture or pattern and certainly prettiness! I’ve also studied more designer wreaths than I can count to figure out what makes them look so full and over the top beautiful!

The key feature of a wreath is that it’s evergreen, as that’s what denotes the circle of life, the immortal spirit, that makes it a seasonal item. On a practical level, it’s also the only type of plant that would still be thriving in the freezing north. So wreaths are usually made of holly, ivy, conifers and other trees and shrubs that are plentiful around this time of year. The wreath I made for our front door this year is a bit different than the ones that have hung on my door in Christmases past. I made a big loopy bow and held it together with a long piece of wire. Then I found the nicest orientation of the wreath (because grapevine wreaths are never really round) and wired the bow to the wreath. The Christmas wreath I am sharing today is made with a grapevine wreath. And part of the grapevine wreath is exposed. I’ve never made a Christmas wreath like this before! I just love that I could make something that has a designer look in so little time! LET’S MAKE A CHRISTMAS WREATH

With all the sales going on right now this wreath can be very reasonable. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE THIS WREATH? Another designer tip for bow placement is to tie the bow high on the wreath. If you center the bow in the middle of the wreath or lower it will look very droopy! Trust me on this! HOW TO ADD THE GREENS Although wreaths have been around for thousands of years, the custom of bringing evergreens into a home started sometime in the 16th century. This modern tradition started in Germany when people began to bring live evergreen trees into their homes during Christmas. They would shape the trees to look like a triangle symbolizing the trinity and make wreaths from the excess. Be creative! The major players on this wreath are the bow and the greens. But you can add a personal touch by adding things you love to your wreath!
