One Of My Favorite Go-To Decorating Staples
I will show you how a twig wreath will be your go to decorating staple after you read this post!
Do you know what one of my favorite go-to home decor staples is?  It’s none other than the lowly twig wreath. Twig wreaths pack a lot of bang for the buck!  They’re inexpensive, come in a myriad of sizes and they add loads of that all important texture any place that you use them.  And they aren’t meant for simply hanging on a door either – there’s so much more that you can do with these versatile wreaths!
I often like to do something a little unexpected with my candlesticks by placing decorative orbs on top of them instead of candles.  The organic boxwood orbs that I placed on the candlesticks on my mantel last spring looked a little blah, but when I added a twig wreath it was just that extra little something, nature inspired oomf that they needed.
SPRING FIREPLACE MANTEL AND HEARTH
One thing that you’ll see repeated over and over in my home, is an earthy twig wreath added to the front of just about anything.  In my office, I used twig wreaths to dress up the front of a couple of vintage printer’s trays.  I think the trays would look pretty boring without the wreaths.
GETTING STARTED WITH MY OFFICE MAKEOVER
On the gallery wall behind the sofa in my family room, I added a twig wreath to the front of an old weathered shutter. Â The black and white ribbon that it’s hanging from helps it to pop.
MY NEW AND IMPROVED GALLERY WALL
 I used the timeless twig wreaths and hung them from black and white checked ribbon to dress up the front of my kitchen cabinets last Christmas.  Each wreath has an ornament hanging inside it and little greenery and berries hot glued to the top.
CHRISTMAS IN MY FARMHOUSE KITCHEN
To dress up a framed printable, I even added a small  mini twig wreath to some greenery sprays that I tied together.  It’s hanging from more black and white ribbon and has red berries tucked into the greenery.
I’ll say it again – twig wreaths can be used for just about anything!  Here I’ve used one as part of the filler in my dough bowl.  This dough bowl is rather deep and the woodland twig wreath helps to take up some of the space.
HOW TO LAYER AND FILL A LARGE DOUGH BOWL
Twig wreaths are a no-brainer when it comes to fall decorating.  Here, I simply leaned a 12″ twig wreath up against the aged wood boards on my decorative fall mantel.
Twig wreaths are great for stacking too! Â I love, love, love stacking two round twig wreaths together as a topper for the urns on my front porch! Â The bottom wreath is a spray style twig wreath and the top one is just a regular one.
Welcome To My Fall Front Porch
On my front porch this fall, I added a few fall picks wedged into the wreaths. Â Super easy and they add quite a bit of fall punch!
Last year, IÂ dressed them up with just mini berry garland. Â Very, very simple. Â In this case, the twig wreaths helped to hold the pumpkins in place.
And lastly, I stacked two twig wreaths on top of each other in the tray that I put together for my fall coffee table. Â These elevated wreaths do a nice job of helping to fill the tray – one wreath was just too skimpy looking.
ONE FALL COFFEE TABLE – TWO WAYS
So, if you aren’t already using twig wreaths, other than to hang them on a door, have I made a believer of you?
You’ve made a believer out of me, I’ll definitely be using them.
Where do you find your twig wreaths? Love the suggestions on how to use them!
Good morning! I find most of my twig wreaths at craft stores and sometimes at home decor shops. You can order them from Amazon too. Hope this helps!
I’m impressed! Thanks for all the tips! 😉
I have never thought of the idea of using twig wreaths any other way than hanging. I love this idea. All these great ideas make me want to run out and buy different sizes of twig wreaths. Thanks for showing all your wonderful ways to use twig wreaths
I love all of your ways to use twig (we call them grapevine wreaths in Tennessee) wreaths. I have several and am going to be using them all over the place now! And thank you so much for visiting with me and letting me feature you lovely home on my blog. Have a great week!

Love these ideas, Suzy! I’ll probably be borrowing a few!
I love twig wreaths also and will use them. In my fall decor. I like stacking them and will use pumpkins in the center. Nice post Suzy.
Suzy, I love twig wreaths and I love all of the inspiration! Have a great week! Pam @ Everyday Living
Loads of inspiration …….thanks so much for sharing……I keep going over and over it all !!
I love all the great ideas and pictures that you share! I am currently redecorating a 40+ year old home we built. Thank you for sharing many wonderful ways to decorate for all seasons.
Love the twig, grapevine wreath. I have one that I decorate with seasonal pieces for every holiday. They are a staple and I enjoy seeing what you do with yours
Well now I must fine a twig wreath. So simple and yet so perfect.
I use twig wreaths in my decor, too – love it’s simplicity. I’m inspired by all the ways you’ve used yours. I used one under a pumpkin this year, too, and it has helped to keep it place.
I’m a believer. I love using wreaths but never think to use them in a horiztal way. Great ideas. Thx
Love these ideas!
Suzy,
Love last year’s pumpkins sitting on wreaths in the urns. The orange berries added just the right touch of extra color. Horizontal wreaths are some of my favorite ways to decorate, also, and I enjoyed seeing yours to give me more inspiration.

Love the seasonal decorating ideas.
Twig wreaths everywhere…love them.
But my favorite is the old shutter you have incorporated into the mixed wall in your family room.
Love seeing all your pics.
I can’t tell you how much I look forward to reading and enjoying every blog you do, I have a lot of mini wreaths that I use as napkin rings but love the idea of hanging them from the kitchen cupboards.
Thank you for all your inspirations.
