Where to Hang Wreaths & Garlands at Home
The vivid green colour of wreaths and garlands brightens the gloomy days of winter, adding festive cheer to any home. Traditional Christmas decor often features greenery, and our artificial Christmas wreaths and garlands make it easy to achieve this stunning look every year.
But what do you do with all of these wreaths and garlands? If you want fresh inspiration for your decorations, we can help.
Whether you want to deck your halls or find a few places to accent your home, we know where to hang wreaths and garlands for a full cheery effect.
Outdoor locations
Hanging your wreaths and garlands outdoors is a fantastic way to decorate your home in time for winter. No matter how many or few you use, we’ll help you hang your Christmas decorations to full effect and make your home as inviting as possible.
Not all wreaths and garlands use the same materials, which is why it’s essential to ensure yours are safe for use outdoors. At Christmas Tree World, our artificial Christmas garlands and wreaths are safe for outdoor use.
Front door
Invite holiday guests into your home through a beautifully decorated front door. Hang an outdoor Christmas wreath on your door or frame your doorway with a Christmas garland. You could also use garlands to decorate any railings to create a truly inviting entrance for any visitors. Read our guide on how to hang a Christmas wreath on your door.
Backyards and gardens
Some people only decorate the front of their homes. However, if you’re hosting a party, remember to decorate your garden or decking area!
When people step outside for fresh air, let them be caught up in the holiday spirit by framing your deck with a sparkling pre lit Christmas garland. It’ll look stunning at night, adding a warming and welcoming glow to your garden.
Windows
You can choose to decorate all your windows or place garlands on specific windows to highlight them. Our pre-lit Christmas wreaths feature long-lasting bright LEDs which are perfect for highlighting the features of your home.
If you have windows of varying sizes, you could place a wreath on large ones, garlands on small ones, or only choose to decorate matching windows. You could even hang a small wreath on each or use a garland around the frame if you have larger windows. It’s easy to create a visually unique effect no matter what you decide.
Other external doors
Another option is to decorate any other doors leading out of your home. Most homes won’t have many other entrance points, but you could add wreaths or garlands to a side door or back door.
Our garlands look breathtaking strung around balconies or on patio door frames leading out into the garden.
Porches and overhangs
You can hang garlands under any or all overhangs you have in your garden. If you want to up the amount of greenery in your decorating, you can frame your whole front porch with a garland by running it under your porch’s covering.
Garlands are straightforward to place anywhere but should be kept under roofs for better protection.
Indoor locations
Indoors opens up even more possibilities for hanging your Christmas greenery as there are plenty of places to hang garlands and wreaths!
Every room in your house can benefit from a wreath or garland. It’s an effortless way to add a dash of holiday decor - without having to go over the top. You could even match your decorations to your artificial Christmas tree, creating a seamless and complete festive look.
Hallway
Mirror your front door by using similar or even the same wreaths and garlands inside your main entrance. You can quickly add a wreath to any available hook or use a coat hook if you have one. If your stairs lead off the hallway, it’s a great idea to wrap a garland around the bannister.
Living room
If you have a fireplace, this is a fantastic area to highlight with a wreath. There’s nothing better in winter than gathering around a fire with your family and friends. Laying a garland on the mantelpiece will complete the look, bringing any winter wonderland scene to life.
If you don’t have a working fireplace, add candles for the same feel. If you don’t have a fireplace, choose any architectural detail to place a wreath on or over. If you have beams, make them festive with a garland. You could also put a wreath over your sofa if that’s where people will be.
Dining room
Your living area will probably be the main focus of your decorations and be where your primary Christmas tree is. However, you shouldn’t forget about decorating the dining area. Use a garland as a table runner or one of our smaller pre-lit wreaths as a centrepiece.
If you have the space, hang a plain garland around the walls for a fully decorated feel.
A wreath in every room
Wreaths are a fantastic addition to any room around your home! You can choose any wreath you like of any size and hang it on a feature wall in every room. You can even put a smaller wreath on every door inside your home.
Christmas only happens once a year, and this is an effortless way to fill your house with holiday cheer. No room should be without Christmas joy!
