There are a lot of beautiful wreaths out there and if you\u2019re anything like us, it can be hard to pick a favorite. But after working with all types of wreaths for two decades we\u2019ve learned a thing or two about how to choose the best wreath for each unique type of person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, we decided to create a guide to help you choose the best wreath for you! In this guide, we\u2019ll go through all of our different types of wreaths, different occasions, and different seasons so that you have a good idea of what wreath will work best for your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wreath Materials<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since wreaths are a wonderful home decor statement piece, the first thing to think about is how it will look in your home or, if you\u2019re gifting, in the home of your recipient. The main thing that separates our wreaths visually is the materials used. While most of our wreaths are made using our farm-grown magnolia leaves, we also offer Boxwood Wreaths<\/a>, Pinecone Wreaths<\/a>, a Lavender Wreath<\/a>, and a Cedar Wreath<\/a>. Then among our magnolia wreaths, we offer Lacquered Wreaths<\/a> and Fresh Magnolia Wreaths<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fresh Wreaths<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The fresh wreaths are made from magnolia stems cut fresh each day from our abundant groves of magnolia trees. They are then accented with various fresh greenery or dried botanicals. These fresh wreaths are seasonal and begin the drying process immediately. Due to their natural materials, our fresh wreaths, which also include our boxwood wreaths and cedar wreath, are only available in the fall and winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dried Wreaths<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unique to our dried wreaths is the extra step we take in carefully drying the fresh wreath bases and then lightly coating them with a touch of green for a natural look. Then, we accent the dried base with dried flowers, fruits, and other unique embellishments. These dried wreaths maintain their appearance for many-many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lacquer Wreaths<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Finally, we have our lacquered wreaths. These are hand crafted the exact way as our dried wreaths except the hue given to the dried base is quite vibrant. Each wreath then receives a sealant which gives it a \u201cone of a kind appearance.\u201d Like our dried wreaths these lacquered wreaths will last for years. Although, we recommend you hang them in a location that is free of foot traffic because the leaves are fragile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, all of these wreaths are handmade and have their own unique character that works for a wide range of occasions and seasons. But, keep reading to learn which wreath among all of our options would be best for you and your unique needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
