The humble wreath is, for many of us, an essential piece of holiday decor. From our doorways to our mantels, wreaths add festive cheer, volume, and texture to any space they inhabit, all while being a transitional decor piece.
Martha Stewart is, unsurprisingly, a big fan of the Christmas wreath, having revealed on her blog recently that she likes to place them both inside and outside her home. 'I love to decorate my home with lots of wreaths inside and out,' she states on her blog.'Indoors, on each of the windows in my servery, we hung silver wreaths.'
When we saw that she created a gorgeous piece at QVC that combines the draped nature of garland with the sheen of ornaments, it became clear: it's the one to spring for this season.
This stunning wreath combines realistic-looking eucalyptus and greenery with a beaded garland for a unique and glamorous finish. Hang on a doorway or mantel for a statement piece of holiday decor.
At under $90, it is a fantastic investment that would look just as beautiful inside as it would out. The draping of the jewels instantly elevates any space, too.
Speaking of: Martha says that when it comes to wreath placement, getting experimental is key to creating a harmonious look in the home.
'Wreaths don’t always have to be hung from doors or windows,' Martha states on her blog. 'We hung my jeweled wreaths from the sconces in my sitting room.'
