The wreath is a harbinger of the holidays. We display ours to better deck the halls, share end-of-year cheer, and hang them on our front door to greet our guests all season long. From rustic to radiant, here are our favorite ones over the years. (Be sure to try our wreath treats from our complete holiday cookie guide!)
Brightly colored balls bring this wreath together (literally!) And the best part is, there's no need to break the bank. Start by scouting out your local thrift stores for fun finds, then get the how-to on assembling here.
Turn fallen branches of greenery into simple yet charming mini-wreaths. Add a pop of color with cheery red ribbon and soon, every window in your house will want one.
Here's a wreath that will have everyone doing a double-take (yes, you did DIY it!) Adorn yours with dainty floral appliques and scraps of shimmery fabric.
Add pepperberries to a vine wreath form for a decorative accent that spreads holiday cheer in or outdoors.

Frosted Pinecone Wreath
For the earthy, rustic look of this wreath, attach Norway spruce pinecones around a bed of moss. If stored properly, it'll last you for holidays to come!
Decorate a cedar-and-juniper wreath with icicle ornaments and let it greet your guests all winter long. Wrap floral wire through the ornament’s hole and around the greenery, and be sure to place more of the shiny spikes along the upper arc -- so they look like Jack Frost’s real handiwork.
