There are so many reasons to be excited for Spring. One of my Favorite things is cleaning off the front porch, adding some new plants and a wreath. I thought why wait for Spring? We can at least brighten up the door with a new wreath. Today I am sharing a few of my favorite wreaths for my Friday Favorites. Our front door didn’t get a new wreath….just some new ribbon did the trick!
I had a Magnolia Wreath from the Fall and love it- really a timeless wreath. This wreath I can really use ALL year long- Spring, Summer, Fall and even Winter. In the Fall I tied a scarf around the back of the wreath. Now I wrapped pieces of ribbon around the top. I ended up using about 5 yards to make it really full. (similar ribbon HERE find similar Magnolia Wreath on sale HERE).
Below are a few of my favorite wreaths. I really love a dried wreath- but there are some great faux options too (like my Magnolia Wreath, but they can be a little pricey to make the faux look real).
#1- White Dried Wreath // #2- Bay Leaf Wreath // #3- Pink Dried Wreath #4- Boxwood Wreath //
#5- Mixed Bay Leaf Wreath(I bough this for my kitchen) // #6- Yellow Dried Wreath
I really think the pink would look good thru the Fall, don’t you? My favorite wreath is #5- Mixed Bay Leaf Wreath because it would look great everywhere and thru every season. Just bought it for our kitchen.
My next Favorite thing this week is THIS Plug-in Sconce. Finn had a lamp on his table. But every time I went into his bedroom the lamp was either knocked over or crooked. So why keep the lamp battle going?? It was just a toy to Finn, which it cute buuuut he could hurt himself if he got too wild. I was THRILLED to find this sconce because it swings- so we can use it when someone is reading on the daybed or reading in the chair! Also the cord doesn’t bother me- in his bedroom it works. It looks industrial. (I found a coupon code SAVEBIG10 for 10% off).

Like all the wreaths. I found a great moss one at Target too. I think it’s Smith and Hawkins. Do you have a link for the big house numbers you have? I didn’t see them on the shop your house. I want to change my numbers . I have a shower curtain just like that one with charcoal tassels that I got on Amazon last Spring. I like be it and it goes great with my subway tile . Love all your ideas. I need one of those sconces!

How did you attach wreath to door?Wreath hook does not fit my storm door (association does not allow me to remove storm door).
Mine is sitting on my door knocker!
I ended up finding a decent looking magnolia wreath at Kirland’s. It was normally $29.99, but I had a coupon so it was closer to $20.
That is a score!!!
