There is something a little unsettling about wreaths hung on doors and still lingering in February. There are many reasons to leave wreaths in place after, say, Epiphany, or in our household, Superbowl Sunday. Sometimes, people are away. Weather can play a part – who wants to be up on a ladder in single digit temperatures and ice on the ground? Laziness may play a tiny part, if we’re totally honest. A winter theme wreath solves this dilemma. Until spring comes, your neighbors can’t be too judgmental if the wreaths shown below are still on display.

Member Patti Quinn, our Wreath of the Day Sponsor today, hangs her wreath in her fireplace as a winter accent, and always requests her wreath be winter themed, often without even a bow. The look can last a long time.
