How to Hang a Wreath

The easiest and safest way to hang a wreath is with the help of a wreath hanger. There are a variety of wreath hanging accessories to choose from including metal hooks, magnetic strips and adjustable bars. The majority of these hangers are designed to hook around the top of your door on one end while the other hooks around the wreath. This method is often more preferable than resting the wreath on a nail – the latter will leave a hole in your door that is visible all year round.


If you do decide on an over-the-door wreath hanger, be aware that if the hanger doesn't fit properly, it may be difficult to close the door. To ensure it fits correctly, measure the thickness of your door and choose a hanger with the same depth. To find a hanger's depth, check out the Weights & Dimensions section in the product description.

Tip: If your hanger bangs against the door after opening and closing it, stick a buffer to the back of your wreath to prevent any marks from forming. Try a rolled up wad of fabric or a felt pad.


How to Hang a Wreath on a Glass Door


An over-the-door hanger is typically more noticeable when you have a glass door. Try a clear hook with a suction back that applies directly to your door.


How to Hang a Wreath on a Metal Door


Use a magnetic hook specifically made for metal surfaces. These magnets are small but strong; you can count on one or two to hold up your wreath with ease.


How to Hang a Wreath from the Inside of the Door


If you don't want any hanging accessory on the exterior of your door, place a hook upside down on the interior of your door. Using clear rope, twine or string, make a loop on one end. Fasten this loop around the upside down hook on your door and pull the string up and over the door onto the exterior side. Tie the other end of the string around one section of your wreath and let it hang.
