My Favorite Mini Wreath (Amazon!):

Napa Home & Garden 6-inch Preserved Boxwood Wreath with Ribbon

More mini wreaths:

Shop Ribbon:

LaRibbons red-and-white striped grosgrain ribbons and a natural cotton striped ribbon are great for finishing wreaths and adding a classic holiday touch.

Christmas in the Living Room

For a fresh take, replace the expected red-and-green palette with green-and-navy or green-and-gray. These combinations feel festive yet refined.
