Holiday wreaths are one of the best ways to bring a festive touch to both indoors and out. Artificial wreaths extend the life of fresh wreaths, giving holiday wreaths a long-lasting decoration. While this is a fun way to deck the halls, repairing the damage done to the walls when hanging wreaths is not as fun. To avoid patching large nail holes and repainting, here we share six clever and discreet ways to hang wreaths without damaging your walls.
From self-adhesive hooks to fishing line, scroll down for tips and tricks for hanging wreaths without using a drill, hammer, or nails.
Self-adhesive hooks
Using self-adhesive hooks is one of the best ways to hang wreaths without drilling holes in the wall. Self-adhesive hooks come in a variety of sizes to hold different weights. Be sure to buy hooks that are large enough to handle the weight and size of the branches of your wreath.
Self-adhesive hooks work on a variety of surfaces, from drywall to tile, so they work equally well on the wall around a door frame as they do on a tile backsplash around a kitchen window.
Use multiple hooks to secure your wreath, placing one at each end of the wreath and several midpoints throughout the length of the wreath to support its weight.
Fishing Wire
If your garland is too thick to use on a self-adhesive hook, you can use fishing wire to make a loop around the garland and then place the loop on the hook. There are two main benefits to using fishing wire – it’s made of sturdy nylon that won’t break easily, and it’s transparent so it won’t be visually distracting.
Floral Wire
If you only have small self-adhesive hooks that aren’t big enough to tuck your garland into, floral wire is a great alternative. It’s inexpensive, usually green, and will blend seamlessly with your garland.
Always use wire cutters to cut your floral wire to the right size, as it’s easy to damage your scissors if you try to use them. Using the wire, make loops around the garland branches, and then use them to hang your garland on a hook on the wall. No one will notice if your garland is artificial, and once it’s time to take it down at the end of the season, save the loop until next year.
Transparent Hooks
Use transparent self-adhesive hooks, which will disappear into the background and make your garland appear to be floating on the wall. Be sure to choose the right size to ensure your transparent hooks can support your garland and hold it securely in place.
Cable Ties
Similar to floral wire, cable ties are a great way to secure your wreath to the wall. Either use cable ties to attach the loops to the wreath and then hang it from a hook on the wall, or if you have art hanging on the wall above your bed, remove it for the holiday season.
If the existing nails in the wall are at a suitable height for your wreath, hang the cable tie loops directly on those nails.
Wreath Hooks
If you don’t want to damage your exterior door frame or siding, consider purchasing a wreath hook specifically designed to hang your wreath on a door. A wreath hook is usually made of decorative metal that attaches to your door and is secured to the top of the door. It provides a frame that you can thread your wreath through to secure it without the need for any power tools or hammers.
