Wreaths are one of my most favorite holiday accents. I love them on doors, on doorknobs, above beds, on cabinets… anywhere, really. To narrow things down a bit, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite door-based options for your viewing pleasure. Some you can DIY, some you can buy, and some are just eye candy. Enjoy, and have a lovely weekend!

A day late, but here it is: the first P&P Christmas inspiration board! This one is geared more towards home and holiday decor than a wedding — what do you think? The palette (what I’m calling eucalyptus, cream, and coral) is definitely different from your more standard red and green, but I think it could work in the right home, particularly if your year-round decorating palette is on the brighter side. The natural materials (raffia, wood, yarn, burlap) and seaside accents keep things interesting.

P.S. Sorry I don’t have more exact links for most of these! I’m a Better Homes & Gardens subscriber, and most of these images are locked away in the subscribers-only section of their website.
