Have you started decorating? Or at least thinking about it? 🙂 Last year, I was inspired by alternative Christmas trees and this year, I’m finding myself drawn to chic, modern wreaths which actually give a great excuse to get decorating well before December, because the simplicity of these wreaths makes them a lovely addition to autumnal and winter decor. These wreaths are not just for Christmas, and they’ll look lovely hanging anywhere in your home or on your front door!
Isn’t this absolutely stunning? Made by cutting a wire wreath frame to form a crescent shape, tying bunches of olive branches to it, hanging with floral wire and finishing with a final flourish of an olive green ribbon bow, this is simple yet so very, very chic! Full instructions here: Wreath by Putnam & Putnam for The Line.Made using an assortment of winter greens and floral wire, this simple wreath is a gorgeous way to add greenery to your walls! Instructions here: Hanging green bouquet by Hello LidyI love the mix of materials in this one: foraged twigs and greenery, copper and cotton! So pretty! Tutorial here: Copper and twig wreath by Erika RaxThis simple wreath uses an assortment of greenery and flowers (eucalyptus, cotton flowers, baby’s breath and aspidistra leaves) to create a wreath with really pretty texture!

Love this post – so much gorgeous inspiration, but all so simple. I might even have to get a bit crafty and try one (probably involving eucalyptus). x
