How to Hang Window Wreaths + Black Friday Decor Finds

This post is sponsored by Wayfair.

Every year, I get asked this one question over and over about how to hang Christmas wreaths on windows. It’s a little decorating tradition we’ve done every season since 2017. And it’s so simple that I’ve hardly ever thought about sharing a tutorial.

But as I was putting up Christmas wreaths on our living room windows, I finally remembered to document the process.

8 years ago, we bought $5 clearance bin wreaths for our windows, but they desperately needed replacing this time around.

So I found the perfect realistic wreaths from Wayfair to use along with several other seasonal decor pieces on sale for Wayfair’s Black Friday Extended deals.

One of the things that sold me about this house was the many windows and French doors in our living room. So accentuating them with these artificial cedar and hemlock wreaths seems like a no-brainer. They look so real!

What You Need to Hang Wreaths on Windows

• Suction cup hook
• Wreath (Choose one at least 2/3 the width of your window for scale. My wreaths are 22″ wide and my windows are 30″ wide, for reference.)
• Ribbon (I recommend wired 2.5″ wide ribbon.)
• Scissors
• Push pin

See the video tutorial included below the steps.

Step 1 – Set Hook

Place the hook near the top of your window on a window pane.

Step 2 – Loop Ribbon

Cut approximately a 2.5′ to 3′ length of ribbon and loop it inside of the wreath. Place the backside of the ribbon in the middle of the wreath hanger on the back.

To change the look of our wreaths every year, I like to use different colored ribbon.

Step 3 – Hook Wreath

Place the wreath hanger on the hook with the ribbon in between them.

Step 4 – Attach Ribbon to Trim

To make the wreath look like it’s hanging from the ribbon, pull the ends of the ribbon up to meet the window trim. Fold over the ribbon and attach it to the trim with a push pin underneath to keep it hidden.

Step 5 – Add Embellishments

To personalize your wreaths a little further, you can attach dried fruit, ornaments, berry picks, bows, or bells to the stems with floral wire.

I’ve been adding little bits of Christmas here and there in the living room. With it being pitch black by 6pm, the twinkle lights do my mood SO much good.

I’m a totally crabby person in winter. It probably explains why I don’t live in a state where it snows often. Ha!

Twinkle lights and cute wreaths and pretty ribbon is my saving grace right now.
