With the holiday season in full swing, these 12 wreath ideas are just a few that'll get you loving the Xmas season even more and they will amp up your creativity and inspiration. Bring on the festive mood!

12 Holiday Wreaths That Fit Any Style

Wreaths are used to amplify any holiday decor, spread holiday cheer, and welcome visitors to your home with a special intention all year long. As previously mentioned, wreaths can be a part of your interiors, anywhere you want to place them, they will look incredible. Here are twelve holiday wreaths to get you motivated to decorate your spaces in full Christmas style, from rustic to brilliant and sparkly to much more.

1. Metallic Laurel Wreaths

To create a fresh twist on the classic laurel wreath, begin by spray-painting some leaves in shimmering silver and gold to complement a base of fragrant bay leaves. Take small clusters of bay sprigs, wire them together, and attach them to the wreath frame, working symmetrically from the top toward the bottom center. Next, combine the silver and gold eucalyptus sprigs into small bundles and wire them at the base of the wreath to create a focal point. For added detail, attach silver and gold ball ornaments to floral picks, wiring them into place within the wreath. Complete the look with a champagne-colored satin ribbon knotted at the base, accentuated by clusters of decorative silver and gold balls, for a festive, modern take on a holiday classic.

2. Glowing Reflection Wreaths

A glittering wreath instantly spreads the holiday spirit and adds a touch of glitz. Although the decorations appear to be carefully beaded, they are actually silver flower appliqués that are adhered to a wooden wreath frame painted silver.

Another example of a glowing reflection wreath can be a golden wreath glimmering outside your house as the main point of attention, radiating shine and elegance at the same time. Creating such a piece is not hard, as it only involves transforming ordinary leaves into shimmering works of art with gold-toned paint and of course, creativity to form it as you wish. A stunning result takes time, so be patient!

3. Asymmetrical Holiday Wreaths

An asymmetrical wreath works perfectly as a contemporary variation of the classic ornament-filled wreath, and best of all looks positively chic on any front entrance. This type of holiday wreath can be placed anywhere in your house and you can choose to make it more simple or fill it up with Christmas ornaments as well.

4. Frosted Pinecone Wreaths

On a grapevine-like structure coated in moss, long pinecones from a Norway spruce are tucked in among shorter ones. When hung outside and sprinkled with a frosted 'snow' lookalike material, this rustic wreath is even more endearing and will make an amazing Christmas decor as one of the best holiday wreaths.

5. Icicle Wreaths

An icicle wreath can take your Christmas decorations to the next level by adding a frosty feeling that looks straight out of a winter wonderland. The delicate, shimmering design mimics real icicles, creating a cool and elegant look that contrasts beautifully with warm holiday lights and traditional greens. Its reflective surface catches the light, creating a sparkling effect that draws the eye and adds dimension to your decor. Perfect for doors, walls, or windows, an icicle wreath complements a variety of styles, from rustic to modern, while evoking the crisp beauty of the season.

6. Beyond Large Wreaths

A large wreath in autumnal colors is a wonderful choice for the Christmas holidays because it blends the warmth of fall with the festive spirit of winter. Shades like deep oranges, golden yellows, and warm reds show and bring a sense of coziness and transition beautifully into the holiday season when accented with pops of green or metallic touches. These earthy tones bring a welcoming, rustic charm to your decor, making the wreath a statement piece for doors, fireplaces, or walls. It’s an elegant way to celebrate the changing seasons while keeping your space festive and inviting for Christmas gatherings. Don't forget to add a huge ribbon to top it off!

7. Neutral Wreaths

A neutral wreath with golden shades of glitter, textured ornaments in beige tones, dark green ornaments, and pampas grass is the perfect way to bring a sophisticated yet understated look to your holiday decor. The soft beige and gold tones create an aesthetic feel, while the dark green ornaments add a touch of contrast and balance to the wreath while keeping it neutral. The glittery golden accents catch the light, adding a festive sparkle without overwhelming the design. Pampas grass, with its feathery texture, adds an organic, airy element, making this wreath versatile enough to suit any style, whether your home leans more modern or traditional.

9. Full-On Floral Wreaths

A floral wreath is the perfect way to kick off the festive Christmas season at home. Its diversity of colors and fresh combinations of flowers, greenery, and seasonal accents bring warmth and cheer to your space, helping you forget about the winter blues. The great thing about a floral wreath is its versatility — you can place it anywhere you like, whether on your front door, above the fireplace, or as a centerpiece on your dining table. The flowers' lively colors and textures instantly create a welcoming atmosphere, transforming your home into a festive haven. With so many color options and arrangements to choose from, a floral wreath lets you personalize your holiday decor, giving your home an uplifting, joyful energy that everyone will enjoy. And remember, wreaths don't always have to be in tones of green and red for Christmas! You can get creative and adapt the wreath to your personal color choices and what you like best.

10. Black & Gold Wreaths

Yes, this is completely out of the ordinary and out of the traditional wreaths you're used to seeing during the holiday season but the truth is that everyone has different styles, tastes, and preferences when it comes to Christmas decorations. The deep black base adds a sense of mystery and luxury, while the gold accents bring a festive and glamorous touch. This combination of colors looks very edgy, making it a versatile choice that can fit both modern and classic holiday themes

Pampas grass wreaths are made to fit any holiday, any day, and any festivity of the year because their neutral color and perfect fluffy texture add volume to any spot, which is the ultimate goal of wreaths in general. So why not add a dose of pampas wreaths or any of the holiday wreaths mentioned previously to enjoy some lovely days and holidays coming up?

12. Turquoise Wreaths in Holiday Decorating

Turquoise is a great color choice to make your Christmas decor pop. It’s a fresh, bright shade that stands out from the usual reds and greens, giving your home a modern feel. Whether you add turquoise to your wreaths, ornaments, or garlands, it can create a cool contrast that makes your space feel more inviting (and cooler!). Pair it with silver or gold for a sleek, festive look. This color brings something new to your decorations while still keeping the warmth of the holiday season, making it perfect for a stylish, unique touch to your Christmas decor.
