I chose the wire frame as it was lightweight, and we could easily tie on the decorations. The one that I purchased came in two sizes, and each had four rings on which to attach your decorations.
I began by wrapping wire garland around the frame. I used two packages of 16 foot lengths. The wire garland was easy to use; it is easy to twist around some of the wires on the frame to attach it. I chose a holly designed garland.
I used a garland that wasn't too full, I wanted to be able to add other decorations to the design.
I wrapped the garland around 2 plus times, and it filled in rather nicely.
Then I tied on the various little ornaments. The candy canes that I purchased did not come with strings, so I bought some green wire for attaching those. My daughter tied on the candy canes.
Here is an example of the mini ornaments. Most are around the size of a half dollar, making them an appropriate choice for wreathe decorations.
Once done, we hung it on the door with a metal door hangar. Before you purchase a door hangar, be sure to measure the thickness of your door to see if the door hangar will have enough space to go over the door. Here is one you can check out on Amazon.
Voila, it looks like Christmas.
Cheryl Paton Update: I found out that the word wreathe actually means to twist or twine something. So in actuality, we were wreathing a wreath! : )
