Things to Consider When Choosing a Cabinet Wreath for Your Kitchen or Bathroom

Along with style, cabinet wreaths require more practical consideration to decide which one works for your space. Cabinet wreaths are miniature wreaths made to hang on cabinet doors in lieu of entry doors. They are made to be used in functional areas, such as kitchens and bathrooms, which is one reason why practical consideration must be made.

When taking cabinet size and proportion into consideration, it is important to note that cabinet wreaths will be made to scale. In addition to avoiding cabinet doors and dominating the space around cabinet wreaths, it is also important to ensure that nothing around the cabinet wreaths is obstructed or interfered with. A decorative touch is balanced with functional use, in that a cabinet wreath that is one third the width of the cabinet wreath is ideal to ensure balanced and unobstructed cabinet use.

Consider the potential that hardware may be present, such as cabinet knobs or pulls. Wreath placement may be obstructed and surface scratches may be created, as the wreath will likely rub the hardware. Use of a ribbon to hang the wreath on the cabinet door is a good way to preserve both the cabinet and the wreath.

Humidity has a big impact on comfort in a room. The materials used may change over time due to the moisture, heat, and temperature changes that are common in bathrooms and kitchens. In these areas, faux floral products used as decor are the best choice because they dont lose their shape or shed. Dried floral products like eucalyptus look best in areas of less humidity because they may become brittle or fade when exposed to sinks or stoves. In the bathroom and kitchen, the wreaths should be clear with some greenery that has a neutral color to match with the counters and cabinetry the best. The bathroom should have a wreath with gentle and smaller textures to help keep a sense of calm.

Wreaths should be lightweight to help with the ease of cleaning and to make maintenance less. Dust resistant materials help with the upkeep in busy decor areas.

If the wreaths are chosen with attention to detail, they can be used daily and add character and charm to the room.
