Holiday Wreaths at Terrain

One of the most beautiful garden shops in the United States is Terrain. It is Anthropologie's garden concept shop and there are only four locations: Glen Mills, Pennsylvania (the original), Westport, Connecticut, Walnut Creek, California, and Palo Alto, California. The original shop in Pennsylvania is the most quaint and charming, in my opinion, because it uses the original structures of an old farmstead to house and showcase its wares. Every year Terrain sets up a winter shop that sells the most beautiful holiday decor items, including stunning handmade wreaths. I've selected five of my favourites below. To see the full collection of their wreaths, click here. If you have the chance to visit any of their stores, I strongly encourage you to! They are an experience in and of themselves. (At the bottom of the post there are photographs of the Terrain stores).

Crimson & Greens Wreath: bright red sprigs of caspia, phalaris, celosia and flax pair with natural leaves to form this handmade wreath. Indoor use only.

My personal favourite: Pheasant Forest Wreath: striped pheasant feathers (gathered humanely) add the finishing touch to this hand-crafted wreath, which brings the autumn woods indoors with natural oak leaves, grasses, cattails and twigs. Indoor use only.

Winter Forest Wreath: natural leaves and eucalyptus with boughs of preserved cedar, white sinuata, echinops and pinecones. For indoor use or sheltered outdoor use.

Dried Cotton Boll Wreath: a handmade wreath featuring natural cotton bolls, some full and some empty, for a look that is charming and unique. Indoor or sheltered outdoor use.

Another personal favourite: Autumn Flax and Protea Wreath: bright protea pods are mixed with natural leaves, preserved myrtle, eucalyptus and flax. Indoor use only.
