    Last updated on 8 Nov. 2023

    Hanging artificial greenery is an effortless way to spruce up your home. They bring cheer to any space and are easy to update as the seasons change. Read this guide to learn where to hang wreaths and garlands indoors and outdoors, as well as ways to refresh your display throughout the year.

    BEST PLACES TO HANG WREATHS AND GARLANDS OUTDOORS

    Outdoor decorations set the tone for your entire home. Create a warm and inviting look with wreaths and garlands in your al fresco areas. Before you start decorating, make sure to check if your foliage pieces are designed for indoor or outdoor use. Balsam Hill’s OUTDOOR-SAFE wreaths and garlands come with UV protection to help prevent fading and keep colours bright. Here are common outdoor spots to spruce up with greenery:

    Wreaths can add interest to outside-facing windows. Place them in the centre of each window and leave at least 15 centimetres of space on both sides. For a dramatic effect, pick a wreath that covers the entire width of the frame.

    INSIDER’S TIP

    Keep your artificial foliage in great condition by limiting outdoor display to up to 3 months per year. Read our guide for more tips on how to care for faux greenery.

    WHERE TO HANG WREATHS AND GARLANDS INDOORS

    Extend the welcoming ambience from the outdoors to the rest of your living spaces. Artificial foliage is perfect for indoor locations since you won’t need to clean up fallen needles unlike their real counterparts. Balsam Hill also offers BATTERY-OPERATED pre-lit greenery with built-in timer for added convenience.

    Consider these areas when choosing where to hang wreaths and garlands indoors:

    EASY SEASONAL HOME DECORATING IDEAS TO TRY

    Artificial wreaths and garlands never wilt or dry out, making them ideal for year-round decorating. With a few tweaks, these versatile pieces can work in any season and blend well with most themes. Enjoy your greenery throughout the year by following these tips on how to transition your seasonal home décor:

    1. START WITH SIMPLE EVERGREENS

    For a setup that’s always in season, put up undecorated garlands and wreaths all year round. Their classic green branches are eye-catching whether displayed alone or with accents. To highlight their timeless elegance, string lights around your greenery or choose a pre-lit variant.

    2. ADD SEASONAL ACCENTS

    With undecorated greenery as your base, add decorative fruits, flowers, and other accents to refresh your home every season. Welcome spring and summer with delicate blooms then switch to fiery leaves, pumpkins, and other harvest-themed pieces during autumn. In the winter, use festive ornaments and trimmings to spread Christmas cheer.

    3. MIX IN THE SEASON'S COLOURS

    Pair your faux greenery with accessories that echo seasonal colours. For spring, freshen up your foliage with pastel-hued ribbons or ornaments. Then, move toward brighter tones as summer rolls in. To recreate autumn’s beauty, choose trimmings in orange, golden yellow, or warm earth tones. Ring in Christmas with red, green, and gold, or replicate the coolness of winter with shades of white and icy blue. To pull your seasonal home décor together, use the same nature-inspired colour scheme for furnishings like pillowcases, blankets, and rugs.

    4. SWITCH TO DECORATED GREENERY

    Replace simple foliage with decorated Christmas greenery for a quick transition. Some wreaths and garlands include built-in decorations to help you welcome the season in style. Balsam Hill’s PRE-DECORATED ARTIFICIAL GREENERY features a wide array of accents like berries, pinecones, and metallic ornaments to suit different themes.
