Best Places To Hang Wreaths and Garlands Outdoors
Outdoor decorations set the tone for your entire home. Create a warm and inviting look with wreaths and garlands in your al fresco areas. Before you start, make sure the foliage pieces are designed for outdoor use. Balsam Hill’s outdoor-safe wreaths and garlands come with UV protection to help prevent fading and keep colours bright. Here are common outdoor spots to spruce up with greenery:
Front Porch
Create a lasting impression with a charming wreath. When selecting a wreath for front doors, ensure it covers only 50-75% of your door’s width. Enhance the welcoming sight with matching garlands over the door frame or around porch railings and columns.
Patio
Be ready to entertain guests at a moment’s notice with touches of greenery in your al fresco dining and lounging areas. Opt for pre-lit wreaths and garlands to set a magical scene at night.
Exterior Windows
Christmas wreaths for windows can add interest and curb appeal. Place them in the centre of each window and leave at least 6 inches of space on both sides. For a dramatic effect, pick a wreath that covers the entire width of the frame.
Storage Sheds
Create a cohesive look throughout your home with outdoor-safe wreaths and garlands for storage sheds in your garden or backyard.

Where To Hang Wreaths and Garlands Indoors
Extend the welcoming ambience from the outdoors to the rest of your living spaces. Artificial foliage is perfect for indoor locations since you won’t need to clean up fallen needles, unlike their real counterparts. Balsam Hill also offers battery-operated pre-lit greenery with a built-in timer for added convenience. Consider these areas when choosing where to hang wreaths and garlands indoors:
Consider these areas when choosing where to hang wreaths and garlands indoors:
Entryways
Give visitors a warm welcome with a wreath along your entry halls. Pick one that complements your front door décor for a cohesive style. To decorate in an instant, hang it on a coat hook or prop it up on an entryway table or rack.
Living Room
The mantel is a popular spot for hanging indoor wreaths and garlands. It creates a point of interest that can be seen from any corner of the room. If you don’t have a fireplace, consider window wreaths or hanging one up behind the sofa.
Dining Room
Enhance your tablescapes with matching wreaths or garlands. Bright blooms and vibrant foliage bring cheer and elevate your dining experience. Hang them on blank walls, windows, or even on the backs of chairs.
Kitchen
Welcome bright mornings with the refreshing view of spring blooms and evergreens. A wreath will make the perfect accent for the space above the kitchen sink or on the range hood all year round. Simply swap out for more fitting foliage as you transition from season to season.
Insider’s Tip
Hang wreaths safely and securely with the right materials. Strong adhesive hooks and floral wire are common choices. For fuss-free hanging, consider an adjustable metal wreath hanger.
