Wreath History:
In America we recognize the evergreen wreath as a symbol of Christmas. We hang them on our front doors and display them in other parts of our homes, though no one seems to know the history of this custom. The abundance of live plants and greens was a natural source of supplies. Many ancient cultures have revered plants and especially evergreens. They have long been a symbol of divine energy. At some point in time, the wreath became a door and wall ornament. The materials chosen for the wreath said a lot about what the wreath meant. A wreath made of holly and mistletoe might be used to shelter a home from the spirits of cold and winter. Even though the word wreath is usually associated with Christmas, they are a form of decoration found in households all year. Some are used as a reflection of personal tastes or collections and some are reminders of special occasions. The vast resources we have today for dried herbs and flowers, as well as the fabulous assortment of artificial flowers and plants have given us limitless choices for materials. Today beautifully decorated wreaths are an integral part of Christmas holidays, as well as being decorated to fit every other season.

Storing your Decorative Christmas Wreath:
The first thing to consider when putting away your wreath is if you crush the wreath for storage you will have to reshape it next year. Also the more times you crush the leaves, flower petals and berries, the weaker they can become, thus decreasing the life of your wreath. Another thing that will improve the life of your wreath is to keep it clean and free from dust and the elements while it is being stored. You can cover it with a sheet, and store it loosely in a box or on a shelf. There are now several styles of tree storage bags that will accommodate different sizes of wreaths, even with the lights included. Select this link to view our Christmas Tree Storage Bags. I would suggest if you decorate the wreath with ornaments, that you store the ornaments separately. Select this link to view our Ornament Storage Boxes. You should be especially careful not to crush your wreath if you store it with lights on. Doing so could seriously damage the light strands and break the bulbs.
