Wreaths All Year Long

The tradition of putting wreaths on doors and walls started in the 7th century B.C. when tree branches were used to crown the winners of the Olympic Games. When exactly the wreath moved from the head to the door is unknown but the athletes probably hung their crowns on their wall and it took off from there.

One of the most popular holiday decorations is the Christmas wreath. Christmas wreaths are hung on doors, windows, fences, gates, from the stairway with garland or over the fireplace and used as centerpieces or advent wreaths on the table. Homes or offices don't seem festive during the holiday season without this favorite decoration. Many people with second homes they don't use during the holiday season still make sure there's a wreath on the door to share the spirit of the season with their neighbors.


43339 Spring Bouquet Wreath
A spring wreath can add to Easter or Mother's Day celebrations. Freeze-dried flowers are typically used on spring wreaths. Pink roses, daffodils, pansies, miniature carnations, seeded eucalyptus; white larkspur and Artemisia are popular choices.

Fall wreaths are very popular. Autumn leaves can be used as a base. Twigs, vines and branches are used. Bright, burgundy burning bush branches are beautiful. Add decorations throughout the fall like small pumpkins and ghosts for Halloween and turkeys and small cornucopia type dried fruits for Thanksgiving.

Herbal wreaths are wonderful additions to any kitchen or dining room. They are made with bouquets of different herbs. Herbs like Mexican or Greek oregano, sage, marjoram, bay laurel, lavender; red hot chilies, basil, bay leaves and thyme are used. There are numerous combinations of colors and textures that can be used and individual tastes dictate which herb wreath is chosen.

Let's not forget the Summer wreaths, with their showy flowers like hydrangea, roses, Mountain-laurel, and the sunflower to name a few.  Summer flowers have an endless verity of colors and textures that you shouldn’t have any trouble finding the perfect match to your home decor.


The many different types of beautiful seasonal wreaths are available at A Wreath 4 All Seasons.  Hanging a different wreath on walls or doors, inside or outside your home or office for every season keeps both you and your guests aware that a new season has arrived.

Keep Nature's Beauty Alive With Dried Flower Wreaths

There are few things more beautiful than a flower. Floral decoration is a mainstay because of this unrivaled natural beauty. Drying and preservation techniques allow you to decorate your home with true flowers instead of sometimes-inferior artificial alternatives. Dried flower wreaths provide a spectacular way to keep nature's beauty alive for several years.  


After all, plant life tends to wither, along with its beauty, when left alone. However, flowers can be carefully dried or otherwise preserved in ways that allow them to retain most of their natural beauty.


Some flowers can be dried on the plant. Generally this requires a period of hanging in a relatively dark, dry space. All though the beauty of the flower is preserved, often the delicate petals can break away easily increasing the possibility of damage when handling.

Other flowers respond better to being dried in a silica compound. Silica, which is something similar to completely dry sand, can draw out the moisture in a flower while leaving it completely intact and retaining its natural beauty.

While a glycerin solution works better with others. The flower absorbs the glycerin through its stems, resulting in a completely preserved, yet pliable decorative piece.

Dried flowers are then used to make some of the most stunning wreaths imaginable. By using wreaths with real flowers’, you are keeping nature’s perfect beauty alive right in your own home.

Visit A Wreath 4 All Seasons and order one of nature's perfect beauties today!
