  • Wreath of the Day, From the Archives – Woodland Looks

    Many customers purchase our wreaths to hang in the country, and we have orders each year asking us to emphasize a snowy, natural look from the forests of Maine, or the Colorado Rockies. Some of our favorite materials to use in these cases are birch bark, twigs, a rich variety of greens, especially white pine, and of course pine cones, especially if still attached on a twig or branch. Below are some examples from past years.

    We thank member Gudi Seward, our Wreath of the Day Sponsor, who herself is a master of understated elegance.
