How to Hang a One-Sided Wreath
Wreaths are popular for decorating homes and offices with flowers, greenery and seasonal items. One-sided wreaths have decorations on a single side, while the reverse side exposes the floral wreath. These types of wreaths are useful singly and in groups along interior and exterior surfaces -- such as doors or walls -- where the undecorated side will not be visible. Create harmony throughout your home by choosing a similar method to hang your wreaths regardless of their locations. Does this Spark an idea?

Tie the ribbon around the wreath in a loose loop. You can tie a knot at the top, form a bow, and secure it with a drop of hot glue. Trim off excess ribbon. The loop should be as long as you want the wreath to hang below the picture hanger or nail.

Place the top of the loop over the nail, picture hanger or door hanger. Make sure the knot is tight enough to hold the wreath.
