Stylish and Unique Holiday Wreath Ideas Classy Christmas wreaths

Season’s Greetings! Today I am sharing a few of the wreaths, swags and other types of door decor I have created this holiday season. I love making wreaths year round, but Christmas and winter wreaths are my favorites! This year I have been busy making several different styles of unique wreaths and swags that I have sold online through Instagram, Facebook, and my Etsy shop. In this post I will be showing you a few of my favorite and most popular styles.

Bobtail Nag

Bobtail Nag is a beautiful horse head custom wreath which is gorgeous for Christmas but works well for winter too (especially for us Kentuckians!) with a simple mix of Douglas fir, scotch pine, and cedar. It is my most popular wreath style and it is truly stunning and unique. Read more

VIntage Mrs. Claus Collectible Ornaments

Let’s hear it for Mrs. Claus (and Miss Claus, and Ms. Claus)! When it comes to Christmas let’s face it…Santa gets all the kudos, and cookies! We all know that Mrs. Claus is responsible behind the scenes for a successful Christmas each year, and she does a whole lot more than just bake cookies all day! She is a true unsung heroine of Christmas! After working on this post I have a whole new appreciation for Mrs. Claus, and I have decided that I simply must add more vintage Mrs. Clauses to my Christmas ~~hoards~~ collections!

I am a music teacher and licensed KY Realtor with a passion for old homes, decorating, collecting antiques, gardening, and creating lovely things!
