The Best Fall Wreaths

Buying Guide for Fall Wreaths

Why buy a fall wreath?

Do you decorate your home for every season? If so, you may consider adding a beautiful fall wreath to your seasonal home decor collection. A fall wreath adds color, texture, and detail to your front door, mantle, or wall. You may enjoy smaller wreaths as centerpieces and larger ones to decorate doors or the space above your garage.

What should you consider in a fall wreath?

• Size: For smaller doors, mantles, and centerpieces, a 15 to 18-inch wreath should be just right. But if you’re looking for a full, fluffy, statement wreath, you’ll want to opt for a larger option. Most people who like a larger wreath go for the 24-inch diameter variety.
• Details: Autumn is all about the details. If you’re looking for traditional flowers, we have you covered. You can find beautiful autumn blooms. But autumn wreaths also feature maple leaves, pumpkins, pinecones, berries, and other fabulous touches. Some even light up.
• Hooks or Hangers: While some wreaths have attached hooks, others do not. Luckily, wreath hangers should be easy to find at your local hardware store.

When should you hang your fall wreath?

Many enjoy hanging their fall wreath on the first day of autumn, September 22. However, others opt to hang their autumn wreath weeks before the first day of fall if they want to get in the spirit early on. It makes an excellent front door decoration through the end of November, whenever you’re ready to replace it with your winter or holiday wreath.
