Designer Mara Lamb Malcolm shows us how to create a festive door decoration in just a few simple steps.
STEP 1
Start with pine and cedar boughs. You can use scraps if you have used these pieces in other areas of your home. Depending on the size of your door, combine a selection of these pieces and bind together with floral wire.
STEP 2
Attach this grouping to your door with the appropriate hardware. Note that we ran a strip of red velvet ribbon down the door to provide contrast to the greenery.
STEP 3
Fluff the boughs by wiring in pinecones, berries, magnolia leaves, and any other fresh foliage, fruit, or other décor of your choosing.
STEP 4
To keep the swag fresh throughout the season, use a mister to spritz the greenery every other day.
