Before you buy or craft a wreath hanger you need to keep in mind that besides keeping the wreath on its intended place, this is also an accessory which should look good and not ruin your decoration. Here are some useful tips that will help you:

Adjustability is one of the most important features to look for. Adjustable models allow you to use one and the same hanger for your front door or fireplace, for example, and will save you from hanging your decoration too high or too low.

Flexibility is another important feature which allows you adjust the way your wreath is hung. Metal hangers are not flexible, so a DIY wire hanger can be a good option, if you need to place more than one wreath. To make it look better, you could use a ribbon of any color to match the main palette of your wreath, for example – red or green for Christmas, burlap for autumn and Thanksgiving, pastel colors for Easter, blue or yellow for summer decorations, etc.

Durability and sturdiness – these are especially important for outdoor decoration because they are exposed to elements like rain, wind, snow or frost. You’d want both wreath and hanger to keep their good look through the holiday season and resist strong winds or heavy rains. In addition, the hanger should be able to bear the weight of the wreath itself without losing its initial shape. It is even more important if you use one hanger for more than one wreath.

Cost – of course, it all comes to the budget! A great wreath hanger should meet all your requirements and come at a good value. There is no need to spend a fortune, of course, yet you should not buy super cheap hooks. Try to find a balance between quality and cost.
